I have successfully had a goodwill claim approved for my 2001 S210 E class estate:
Front arches (new wings)
Rear arches
Tailgate
Bonnet edges
Roof (by tailgate hinges)
This was all approved painlessly by MB Chichester who I have found very helpful. Their work is contracted out to Triangle Sprays of Cadnam who also seem very helpful but I have yet to experience the quality of their work.
In addition to the goodwill work, Triangle have quoted me for:
Repair and paint stonechipped bonnet
Repair and paint stonechipped roof
Repair and paint stonechipped roof sides
Repair and paint doors (4) inc one which has a rust bubble and minor dents on all
The total estimate is the thick end of £1400, my questions are:
a) Is this a reasonable amount for the work required?
and
b) Is it worth doing on a 7 year old, 150k mile car?
Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
