In the Bracknell office today for a performance review, lots of praise... good job pat pat. So a good day, coming down the A322 from Bracknell towards the A30/M3 bl00dy road works so we're all queuing. Just as we get to the cones, I let someone across into my lane & a Polish lorry driver decides he can go as well & thumps the back of the Jag
I pull over, a little way on having got his number, he speaks not a word of English, German & Polish yes. I ask for insurance he's not having any of it. So 999 & after 20 minutes a very nice Traf plod from Surrey comes out in & he tries to get details. 40 minutes later after he has struggled we have a form filled out!
Mr. Pole reckons he was in the right & couldn't see me, for fecks sake he's hit the NSR wheel arch & bumper on the Jag with the front 3ft of his truck, is he blind.

Sorry to share this but had to have a rant, real pain is I've had it 6 weeks or so, the garages prep was poor so they had it back in & made a cracking job of the dings & chips, now it's molested

I knew I wouldn't be the only one. Quick update, I found out who did Guy Salmon Maidstones
remedial work when I bought it. Got him to do a quote £455+VAT, my excess is £200 so I paid for it myself. Colin did a brilliant job, quite quickly, picked up Tues AM, delivered back Thurs PM!
