That's it. If they did a cash settlement with me then I would do a lot of the running around myself to cut costs. Would chuck it on a trailer and take it to Perth myself.

When I originally phoned them up the evening of them authorizing the repairs, the RAC consultant did mention that a payout could be an option if I wasn't happy with the repairer. I believe once they see the quotes I have gotten and the notes at the bottom mentioning there may be more damage upon tear down they may do as you have said.

I'd obviously be happier though if I could sit back and have transport covered, a specialist do the work and re-tune then have it sent back to my door. I'm a lazy c**t haha.

Bit of an update,

Just got off the phone with the RAC assessor, they have accepted one of the quotes I submitted to them and have agreed to put the car on a truck to be sent to Perth for the repair. It will be in good hands

The all important question - who is rebuilding it? Tune as well afterwards, yes?
