Many thanks Spartacus, that's really helpful stuff. I definitely want it fixed properly rather than "cheap and cheerful"! I'm sure its going to be an expensive bit of work but its a fantastic car and want to keep it like that. I'll work my way through that list of approved Audi bodyshops and get some quotes from them hopefully next week. thanks again D

Hi Gareth, nothing suspicious about the lack of insurance, or illegal for that matter, just the circumstances of the case/cover. Fortunately to date I've not been in a position of having to get such a big repair and therefore not very knowledgeable about the best way to go about things. Your point about main dealers outsourcing the the bodyshop is heplful. So you would be surprised even if West London Audi had such a facility? I've had a friend mention a local bodyshop so may well try there as it never hurts to get a few quotes/opinions as you suggest. thanks

Thnks, the chassis is certainly a concern. Given the potential seriousness its certainly feeling like Audi dealer, or one of their authorised bodyshops could be my first port of call.

Hi, this is not the first post I was envisaging making! My car was crashed recently, spun 180 hit a kerb on one side and ended up on a grass verge having knocked over a few smallish bollards. Insurance wont be covering the repairs for various reasons so I need to source and pay for the repairs myself. Damages include broken front spoiler, air intake ducts, couple of door panels, wheel alignment, sensors all lit up like a xmas tree. ADAS recalibration required as well. Feels like its going to be expensive. It is still driveable but not in a good way! I'm in SW London and wondered if anyone had a recommendations to get it fixed please? WLA or Walton Audi no doubt will be expensive, but is that ultimately where I should be headed? thanks for any help/advice D
