scoobyiain Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Well after 3 1/2 long weeks it finaly time to pick up my car tomorrow. Phoned them this morning to see if it was ready as they said the begining of this week and was told it's in the service department getting a good look over before they hand it back. Sounds like thay are doing a really good job with it putting it on 4wd tracking systems to double check everything is ok and that they have not missed anything. Going to get it 1st thing in the morning and give it a good check over myself and make sure everything is on straight, paint matches, genuine parts etc. Will post back up when i get back home with it and let you know if all is well. Gonna drive it like an OAP on the way home as i'm bleep scared.

braveheart Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Fantastic news about your car i know what its like without you car when its off the road, Hope it all goes well today and enjoy the drive home!!
scoobyiain Posted December 12, 2006 Author Posted December 12, 2006 Got her back today and every panel looks spot on although it's never stopped raining so i can't check the paint. 2 new alloys [], front and back brake calipers [], 2 tyres etc. insurance were only putting 2 new tyres on it so i had to pay for the other 2 and was charged £350 [] On the drive home i took it easy doing 65-70 on dual carraigway and had a good laugh as a nissan micra went screaming past me. Good to have her back but dissapointed at having to shell out £950 at this time of year. Iain.
duncan_stephen Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Glad you got her back. And no more micra, a bonus in itself. []

scoobyiain Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 Nah Dunk, it's a NISSAN MICRA badge [] PMSL Was thinking about a re-spray in the same colour as the micra but thought you would all be jealous
