cracked windscreen

[sc_BK]

Would I not be right in saying you can chose who does it? If so I'd take it to a local independant

[stuartrobbie]

im going to try my damned hardest to get a heated screen so ill shop around!

Find a golf course local to you with a road running alongside it. Use your brains ? Scream and shout a bit and they,ll fix it F.O.C.
Been there and done it, three times in all. Does,nt even go through your insurance. Sorted....

Rabbit......

[stuartrobbie]

there's an idea, there is a golf course near here but if any of the players hit a car going on the road they are pretty poor players, and in any other case id get charged with driving on the course

[sc_BK]

Park it outside the ice rink and say some c*nt wearing padded clothing smacked a puck into the screen

[MR BigBeefy LDV Guru]

find out where the local council have cut the grass and say a stone flew up from the mower

[MrMPuk]

You lot are worse than a thieving pikey!!

[BigNeil]

they are aren't they and there was the news story yesterday about fraud claims too !!!

[baconsdozen]

And then we wonder why insurance is so expensive.

[WINDSCREENGUY]

tell em its heated the fitter who comes wont give a toss you could always bung him a tenner to keep him sweet.

they come in clear heated and green heated but the clear heated's are rare

they also do heated with moisture sensor but only 06 on i think

i had a phone number to call up for insurance, the guy asked if the screen has a tint, i said no, he then asked if it ever was heated. i jokingly said i think it was before but previous owner removed it and relays.

the guy then went on to ask if i wanted a heated one, so i said i wouldnt mind one

im working tomorrow so my old man is taking it in to garage so we will find out tomorrow.

i know someone who had a mk 5 with a cracked std screen. when he gotinsurance to do it he got a top tint fitted. then in his car he managed to get a standard one replaced with a tinted heated screen. what a result!

[stuartrobbie]

took time off work yesterday to take it to RAC windscreens in Dundee. they said it would be fine the night before so i expected to drop it off and pick it up 3 hours later or so. it was all arranged when i got in there,they said the wont do it.

furious

my MOT is on wednesday so looks like i wont get it done by then

[FredTransit]

Why won't they do it then? Has the insurance not authorised it?

[stuartrobbie]

im not sure they didnt give me a straight answer, so van is booked into National Windscreens tomorrow, a day before the MOT

to be honest im annoyed but i dont think it was RACs fault, i think its my inusrance company taking the mick!

the guy from RAC couldnt have been more apologetic.

anyway, the saga continues....
