Recently purchased A Class amg month back. Sadly for me my car got hit whole parked up resulting in damage the dealership is estimated at £12k. It's 20 plate. I need new front and rear bumber plus new headlight. It's going through insurance and Mercedes Benz are looking after it for me as no fault claim. All parts have arrived withing 48hrs minus the front bumber which is coming from Germany. At first they said they had no delivery date to being told 'it's shipped'. Never been through this before.
I assume that shipped means the part technically mine now and should be here within next few days. Or they say shipped and it turns out they delivery date is weeks and weeks away. Just panicked atm. I've heard horror stories where cars are sitting around waiting for the parts on back order, which mine isn't. Anyone got any words of wisdom? Is there an actual shortage currently to body work parts?
