Some idiot drove into the back of my shiny new Fabia while at a roundabout.

Visually there is no major damage although the rear bumper has split and there's scuff marks, damaged paint in a few places.

I am currently debating with the insurer about having it fixed at a Skoda approved repairer as it's so new (only had it 3 months.) The VAG site is showing Reynolds of Rushock or Hitech Solihull as being the nearest to me, and I wondered if anyone had any feedback on using these? I can't find a link to specifically Skoda ones on the website, plus it would be good to know if they'll do a decent job anyway. Any help appreciated. 

Welcome.

I would ask the opinion of the Workshop Manager at your Local Dealership on the repairers and who they use.

Could Skoda assurance help? Not sure if others have used it but it wouldn't do any harm to enquire.

Tried that and got shirtily pointedly back to my insurer which wasn't entirely helpful. Might give them another go.

My car is in repair at Forward Motors (Malvern) at the moment, they are Skoda approved.

Had some tit reverse in to me in a car park whilst I was parked and in the car and he drove off!! Got all his reg and van signage. Crushed my rear bumper near side corner and split, also scraped the alloy too. Should have it back next week. 

Thankfully you witnessed this all too often disgraceful behaviour.
