Can anyone recommend a bodyshop around the Fleet, Hampshire area that would be able to repair the bonnet of our Ford Mondeo Titanium X that has been damaged in a traffic queue shunt? The leading edge of the bonnet hit the back of a large 4x4,so unfortunately the bumper did not take the impact. The bonnet appears to have curved, and cannot currently be opened:



The accident was caused by a third party who has admitted liability, but the insurer is stating our vehicle may be beyond economic repair, despite the damage being restricted to a rear bumper and the bonnet, so I will want to arrange the repairs ourselves so as to keep the car on the road.

It is rather frustrating that they would write the car off rather than repair it to the condition it was in prior to the impact.

Regards,
Steve

Try http://phirmfx.com they are in Tilford area near Farnham.

I got a quote from them some years ago to repair a Cadillac CTS that was written off by insurance in similar circumstances.

They were very reasonable compared to the price that the insurance repairers wanted for the job.They seem to do panel beating and 'old school ' body shop repairs.

Didn't get it repaired in the end,as insurance company paid out a very good price.
