[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 308448, member: 6969"] You seemed to indicate the damage to your car was quite minor. Possibly just cosmetic, but a "proper" repair would make it a write off. How about taking it to your local friendly MOT station, and ask him to have a quick look to see if it would still be roadworthy and pass an MOT in it's present condition. If it would, then how about approaching the other driver and suggesting a cash settlement to cover the reduction in value of the car as a result of the damage. If it's only worth £1000 it must be an old car, so I would probably just accept the dents and carry on using it as it is, and accept the fact it will be worth a bit less if you ever decide to sell it (hence why you want some compensation from the other driver for loss of value) [/QUOTE]
