Just bought my FFRR & got hit by... another FFRR - Aaar

Found this today! Only about 3 weeks into my first but long awaited FFRR ownership. Hit and no note left. I have CCTV, but no reg number visible. The one thing I can see is that it was another FFRR.

So what to do? My excess is huge, without the offending reg am considering paying cash for a repair and not incurring a claim on my insurance history.

Anybody know some decent & reasonable bodyshops around / near London?

Gutted to say the least!

 Cheers, Greg

Can you upload the CCTV ? - someone here might recognise the offending vehicle.

Wow, the balls of some folk. (Or probably lack of them......)

Can't help on body shop I'm afraid, but check inside the rear cubby for damage too. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

Isn't that a Sport that hit you - driven by someone built like a brick sh@t house?

Police not interested I guess.
It's not like you wouldn't recognise him if you saw him in the area again, I would check out the local gym, he didn't get that big just on weetabix!

If that's the offender...and unless you're bigger...pay it and move on Mr. Green

Seriously....that's out of order from him. Not bad CCTV but those 22" OF wheels are popular and distinct on some FFRR's...

Hopefully you get some closure and a repair sorted. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........

I know some good body shops north of London which are much less expensive generally. Daytona Coachworks in Stevenage did a great job on my Porsche 928, there's one with a good reputation near me in Welwyn.

Possibly a bit far out but Iain at BodyWorks in Camberley did two blinding jobs for us. 2007 Vogue TDV8 with 255/55/20's fitted

Amazing thanks for the body shops chaps.

Had a stroke of luck tonight. Was trawling my area. Bear in mind I live in central London, there are more Black Range Rovers than Mondeos....

But passing one of twenty I saw in 1m radius, the 'lego' 22" wheels caught my eye....




...and BOOM! it's a match!

. Cheers, Greg
