is it just those 2 panels damaged ?

if so you can quite easily knock the 5 off and get change from the rest


Or is all the roof ripped off or summat

That's definitely not correct, someone is having a laugh . That's just a minor fiberglass repair.

Looks a bit more than just a couple of panels ...

Seems to be the skirt too which has a crack down the front edge and it's standing away from the bodywork, and the centre panel has a big piece missing out the top corner as well as at the bottom.

More importantly ... Baden87 how on earth did you do it!

The plastic bits that got here are £18.99 a pair

Mum and dad's "fell off" after staying on a site

Not suggesting anyone stole them

The repair guy claims there is a metal framework behind the plastick that needs repairing

I would seriously seek another opinion . I would be very surprised if the real cost of that repair is a fraction of what you have been quoted and that would include new fibreglass panels . I would also get a smart repair specialist to quote . You would be amazed at what they can do . The damage looks bad but I am guessing it’s minor cosmetic damage than can be easily fixed for less than your insurance excess !

Someone is trying to extract the urine.

If insurance job, ask for recommended coachbuilder. I can believe each small panel costing around £500 but £5000 unless substantial bodywork damage underneath, seems a lot. Were they pricing it for insurance or a personal repair.

Not sure where you are but these guys have done an amazing job on mine (twice ) and do not charge the earth. Cannot tell where any repair has taken place and they specialise in motorhomes...

I doubt it. I'd be hard pushed to spend the 87 pound on repairing it.

Someone is seeing pounds signs or seen you coming.
