wrxmania Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 Whooo Hoooooo!!!! She is back and looking the same as she did before the accident. Excellent job by Derek @ A F Nobles bodyshop in Penicuik and his staff. The replacement parts list was extensive (a full side of A4) and the cost just short of 4k, in spite of there being virtually no mechanical damage and only a few panels needed. Glad to have it back - just need to wait a while before the smell of Waxoyl disappears (had the first year body service done again as part of the repair). Spend tonight cleaning her up in detail and the finishing touches ie Swissol wax etc. I will add some pics when it is lighter Brian
jamie_wood Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 Whens she going in to citreon to get the "lane departure system" fitted?? Just so that it dont happen again He he he.....only kiddin'. Hope its looking good Matey It all came right in the end.
wrxmania Posted November 3, 2004 Author Posted November 3, 2004 Good idea - but then it may run like a Sh*troen too?? Would not work though - I was in a lane - it just turned into a 3 foot deep ditch Brian
