have i been owned?

i smashed my rear windscreen this morning, so just got off the phone to autoglass. they quoted me £267 for someone to come out and replace.

is this abit extreme? ive never has any windows replaced so dunno what kinda price im looking at.

ive had a look for a tailgate the same colour but cant find anything.

my insurance doesnt cover me for windscreen repairs.

I'm sure you could have got a tailgate had it smoothed and repsrayed for less than £267 but what can you do it gets cold with no windows.

[lambinator]

lol you are being rammed hard in the ass.

try find a cheap tailgate on ebay with glass

[Clouds_mate]

Do you really need the glass tbh?

[Viper]

it does seem like you're being pwned. lol.. but i dont realy know prices..

[Robbo]

mate, did the same thing, cost me £140 when id phoned around. funnily enough autoglass were the most expensive!

how did you smash it mate?

[Clouds_mate]

Im guna guess hot water on frozen window :D:

[Mitchell]

the guy on the phone was dodgy. he kept lowering the price whenever i said 'i would think about it and phone him back'

went from £304 to £242 then to £267 for someone to come out aswell.

id settle for £140! who was that with can u remember?

I dunno the window was really frosty, the car wouldnt start and when i got the spark leads out the boot it just shut and smashed.

I claimed mine through the insurance so it was free (no excess) and someone from autoglass came out to do it. I didn't loose my no claims bonus or anything like that either. I thought that was quite good.

im sure it was a local company (teesside) mate. best bet is to ring around.
it was £140 cash like not involving insurance or anything else so it was very good. i had £200 + with autoglass

[Robbo]

ive just lied about the local part mate. it was called autowindscreens (99% sure)

was the ad right next to autoglass in the yellow pages :)

[Mitchell]

cheers! i'll give them a toot.

[Mitchell]

woot!! they quoted me £113, said it would of been more if i had a spoiler on but nahhhhhh.

[dannyjay]
