For the third time someone has hit my van whilst parked in a car park. Both corners were scratched and now someone has put a big dent in the tailgate. How are people such bad drivers. I’m hoping I’ve just been really unlucky and I park soooo carefully in the hope people won’t keep doing this...

Looking for bodyshop recommendations in Fleet/Farnborough area (North Hampshire). Need some significant scrapes to the side panel and rear arch sorting. Thanks

Let me confess, firstly it a long time since I posted. Secondly my once pristine 2017 T6 needs some overdue care and attention. Firstly my wife recently had an accident, hitting an errant truck wheel in the middle of the carraigway at night. Lucky she was fine and as the van has lifted...

Here we go.. a new adventure awaits! For sale, Damage repair project £24500 Local dealers have said they would put the van on the forecourt at £29995. I need to absord the cost of the damage repair, quoted at £1500 for a donor door, wrap and wrap repair, dentless repair to rear panel, hence...

This happened whilst in 1st gear trying to go forward - work that out. Prob quicker and easier if I go for a door if anyone knows of any ?

I’m faced with my beloved 67 (2018) plate LWB T6 being a possible write off. Without delving into the complex how and why, the rear back post/wheel arch got hit by a boy racer, BUT I’m having to pay. It needs a new drivers side panel, right back door, etc etc. Insurance Company’s ‘consulting...

Howdo everyone, as title says my Copart T6 arrived late last night. Too late to have a proper mooch round it but just had a good look and it’s not too bad. Needs a new bonnet, front bumper and possibly a rad as it’s not holding water. Back doors don’t open and they are quite heavily dented at...

Came out of the gym this morning to be greeted with a car parked up against the back of my bus. Their handbrake failed and it rolled down and hit my bus. Thank goodness for the bike rack. It stopped the car, smashed their rear window and dented their boot. There is a couple of small scratches on...

Hi all! Just bought a VW T6.1 2020 SWB and we’re starting the conversion now. The van came with some pretty significant damage to the door (and a good discount for it!) but I’m trying to figure out if I’d like to do anything make it less noticeable. Pictures are below- by opinions on if I...

I'm looking at T6s for a camper conversion at the moment and this pops up right around the corner from me. Never considered anything that's been a previous total loss, but it has all the extras I would like and falls into my price range (just) so it has peaked my interest. I've managed to get...

Hi Guys, I needed some parts and I bought accident damage T32 - 2022 150 Highline DSG. Chassis being a cat B been crushed so no cut panels ect. But still have quite a lot of stuff left. Engine and gearbox suffered a tiny damage and not tested so will be selling them as spares or repair...

Need a bit of advice please. I received my new T6.1 on Tuesday, Wednesday morning someone living in the street pronged the front bumper breaking the plastics behind the number plate. I suggested to him than rather go through insurance and as I was going to buy gloss black front plastics, that he...

I got a slight bump in queuing traffic at a roundabout today the van that hit me could have only been doing 10mph had a very small scratch in paint work (I think they had no insurance and were getting quite aggressive I had my little girl with me who was getting upset so I took the option of...

Dented my B pillar with a barely visibly dent, but I know it's there! Anyone know anyone in the Southampton/Lymington area that may be able to perform a mobile repair? I am gutted as I did this myself by being a clumsy idiot!

A697 North of Newcastle, travelling South...Merc driver forced me to take evasive action onto the verge to avoid a head on collision.....it was only the fact that I was driving to the System of Car Control as taught to Advanced Drivers by the Police which saved me, the Mrs and the dog. Dashcam...

Someone rear ended me yesterday, and drove off before I could Exchange details! Anyone recommended a good bodyshop in Solihull/Birmingham area? Anything else worth checking out to asses for damage? Thinking get a wheel alignment check?

Having just recovered from catastrophic damage to our 2017 8ball conversion im coming round to start thinking about another van ….this time I’m thinking more along the lines of a 150 dsg Kombi with a rear van king bed no furniture along the side maybe no pop top …solar and 240 hook up Any...

Maybe this should have gone into the 'What have you done to your van today' thread but I've started a new one anyway. On the way home from Cotswold Water Park today when the bloke in the lane next to us saw a gap at the busy roundabout and decided to go for it, unfortunately taking a piece of...
