my wife uses our octy day to day to get to work, and she's been going down some badly repaired roads of late ..... i'll not bore you with the details, but i went out to wash the car today, and the bonnet and 2 front wings are peppered with stone chips which are so deep they are completely through to the red undercoat. the front grill has multiple impact marks, and one of the black fins is damaged. coupled with that, it looks like our cat has been sliding down the bonnet of the car using her claws to slow her down because there are several large gouges in the paint.

anybody know a decent but easy to pay bodyshop in the belfast - craigavon area who could fix the damage? i'm also going to need a new grille because the existing one is shagged and i know those aren't cheap.

all this comes a week after i found out i had a heart condition (at 39 yo FFS), and 2 months before i am supposed to be going on the first holiday we've had in 4 years. i am epic-ly pi$ed off.
