Hi all,

Some spineless incompetant has driven into my other halfs Black Audi TT - nothing major, but enough to cause tears and ruin her day. Its her first car of her own (always had company cars prior), but unfortunatley she has had nothing but bad luck with it.

Anyway, is not horrific, just scratched OS door and front OS wheel arch is dented.

Not enough to warrant the insurance getting involved (unlike the last time the car was driven into), so I'm wondering if anyone knows of a decent, but realtively cheap, bodyshop in Maidenhead or Slough (not BodyTechnics).

In the meantime, I've a sellotaped blue paint sample taken from the door and will be on the hunt for small blue car with NS front damage on it. It happened in a crescent, so probabbly done by a local I'd imagine....I hope I can find it.

Will do, I'll pop in on the way to work.

I've had a similar problem with insurance work handled by another local bodyshop who I wont mention (in this post at least!).

Thanks again.

Not breaking the naming rules, Just wasn't what I expected. But I have heard others have had a better experience.
