Morris Minor Owners Club

last night i found out that the Morris Minor is an optional extra of the Porsce Cayenne's braking in the rain system.

Therefore i am now in need (fairly urgently) of a panel beater. So some questions:

As this is a lovely round dent on the rear nearside wing and there is no paint damage, is this a relatively easy job?

If it is an easy job can a "normal" panel beater do it, or will i need a MM specialist?

Anyone know a good panel beater in surrey (ideally very close to Kingston!!)

cheers

Is it not going through insurance??

Please show us some photo's of the dent.

In general, a modern body shop does not do much panel beating and will just replace the wing. A classic car restorer on the other hand might be able to save the wing, depending on the amount of damage.

my friend got hit about 20 years back and it was cheaper for the other guy to pay 500 pounds than loss his no claims bonus.

have you tried chertsey minors

Go through your insurance, giving them their name and address.

why? all it will do is increase every ones premium?

If it is as small a bump as it sounds.. what is a new wing + spray ? probably less than the the persons excess and certainly if the cayenne driver is playing ball do you need the hassle of dealing with an insurance company?

with a certain sense of irony, i got hit today by a lorry......luckily on the same wing!! so now it's definitely a new rear wing now. are morris minors invisible?

it never rains but it pours...

from the sounds of it you are ok which is the main thing

maybe you can get the cash out of the porker and cash or insurance from the lorry as well..

and spend the money painting your car bright yellow in the hope they can see you next time
