Adam, back to the assessors tomorrow to sort out suspension (with different repairer)
Trip one: "Wheel alignment is perfect mate"
Car drove like crap
Subsequently found (and replaced) bent rear control arm and warped wheel
Trip two: "She's spot on now mate"
Car drive like bigger crap
I replaced rear tyres.
Tyre guy found bent front tie rod, and bushings squashed and rubbing on new control arm. (Tie rod replaced. Bushes to be investigated)
Trip three: Tomorrow. Different repairer. Finally a qualified mechanical assessor to review from insurance company. We'll see how we go.
I just want my car back and running perfectly!! (also found some dodgy panel work today. AAAAARGH!!!
Plus I've got a few goodies on order i want to get on with!!!!!
