My god what a list.
Thought mine was bad at £1500.

[b1g_dav3]

Never heard of insurance paying out that much for something like a Fiesta >_>

[Stoney871]

Must admit I'm surprised too.

[Mark M.K]

That's one big bill and list!

[Preee]

Is that 4000 , that the insurance have agreed to pay ? , wow big bill , i bet if you sourced the parts yourself it would be at least half that price.

[Toppy]

Did the insurance agree to pay this or is this just the repair bill?

[Gham05]

Thought exactly the same, pretty shocked to too be fair, would have cost much less if it was done independently. Yeah Ford assess the damage and decide whether it's economical to repair it in, and then authorise it themselves. And as far as i know, the insurance just pick up the bill at the end

Pretty much Authorised Repairers will do an Audatex report, auth if it's under 66% of total value of the car, invoice over a shell to the insurer and the claims support team will issue payment.
