Front end repair
Discussion
Hi all
Some nice person hit the front of my Griff today while it was parked up in Tesco's car park.
Would you believe they did the decent thing and waited until I returned to the car.
Got all their details
What I'd like from the PH people is an idea of where to get it repaired.
Suggestions please guys!
Rotten timing as the Griff Growl is next weekend. (I'm still going)

Sorry to hear of your misfortune.
Who are you insured with?
Don't assume just because you aren't to blame its something you don't have to worry about. I've made a vow that if someone drives into me again I'm going to thump them anyway because I know I'm in for a load of pain so they should have some of it up front too.
For my no blame accident which happened at last years Le Mans I'm still waiting for the excess to be paid back to me.
I was contacted by the other chaps insurance straight away with an agreement I could take my car anywhere I wanted, get it repaired and get the bill sent to them.
Like a clot I contacted my own insurance company just in case I needed legal help somewhere down the line. My own insurance company have been nothing but a complete PITA and have attitude as soon as they pick up the phone.
I've told the major advertiser for TVR insurance that now my renewal is up they won't see anything from me again unless this is resolved in the next week.
It has been far from the no-blame pain-free experience I was expecting.
Goes off gnashing teeth

ts everywhere waiting to clout your pride and joy.
I can wholly recommend Hilton Coachworks in Bishops Stortford. They did a great job repairing the back of my car when i got hit in December. I went through Europa Consultants who sorted out everything for me and gave his insurance (lets call them DL) the kick up the arse they needed when they were being a pain in the arse paying out. Overall it was pretty painless (apart from i was without the car for a few weeks)
Sorry to hear your bad news, really gutted for you. At least the people had the decency to remain with the car and own up...a rare thing these days. Call Mark Tann at The TVR Centre in Barnet 020 8440 6666. They use Hilton Coachworks and if there is a 'no fault' claim you will get a 'like for like' loan car whilst yours is off the road.
I used to live near Hilton in Stortford. Used them before on a Eurobox but never seen a Tiv repaired by them. They're an option for sure.
Mark, hope you can point out Julian to me at the Growl. I'll be looking at your repair as a bench mark. Just hope you get it back in time - I'm counting on it-

Hilton have done TVRs since the wedge era. I remember as a kid seeing TVRs outside their old premises on Stansted Road all the time. Mark, hope you can point out Julian to me at the Growl. I'll be looking at your repair as a bench mark. Just hope you get it back in time - I'm counting on it-

Spoke with Julian this morning - things looking good for picking up the car on Friday Mark, hope you can point out Julian to me at the Growl. I'll be looking at your repair as a bench mark. Just hope you get it back in time - I'm counting on it-
Will confirm and drop you a mail separately re the other item I think that Julian has a stand at the Growl, so shouldn't be too hard to find!/m
