Hopefully will look fine but won't be right in my mind! Never had the chance to enjoy my new car feeling really :(

It's only a little bruise - nothing mechanical has been broken...think of it as a character building experience for your Citigo that will toughen it up for those mean urban streets

lol - I don't think I'd see it that way...

Me neither tbh. Was just trying to help chris c come to terms with the (relatively) modest damage...

Thanks Guys

 

Here it is when I collected it last Friday from the dealers

 

So sorry to hear it fella. Hope they have repaired the car for you. As I mentioned on another topic that I had this car for a week.

You had this car for a week??

 

Supplying dealers bodyshop have quoted £860 to repair it :think: fill the dent and paint rear quarter and door then add new decals.

I'm now looking into getting someone to do PDR dent removal on it and hopefully machine polish out the scratch.

Here's a pic of the dent ...

 

£860!?!

Thats ridiculous

Hi,

Sorry to hear about the repair cost.

Yes, I was the prv owner of your citigo. You bought it from hughes right? What history did they mention about the car?

Yes bought from Hughes. Asked you in the other thread to PM me.

£860 that's one crazy price for such a small area of damage :(

I think as you say a decent dent guy would be able to get that out.

Good luck.

Yeah indeed!! I won't be getting it fixed by them

Good luck Chris. As you say, no point in leaving an even bigger dent in your wallet. An independent repairer/painter will offer much better value.

Try this crowd - I've seen their work and they are pretty good
