Well. The body shop man is of the old school and will bend his own metal. He knows a bit about Volvo. Has done a rather nice 144.
The quote to cut out
&c. &c. &c, and to re-spray the metal sunshine roof and fix two small rear wing patches is a bearable price. He is a sleeves rolled up sort of chap. Gets stuck in looking at the car before giving his opinion and price. And his previous work for me is lasting. So I ain't shopping around.
It's good to have a car with signs of a decent length of future and so it is worth paying to get done.
And as of this morning the MOT is valid until 29 September 2018 and no advisories .
