treone 680 Report post Posted 21 hours ago (edited) Which panel beaters would Auckland members recommend in the Mangere area (or wider) that are reasonably priced? A nephews VW Polo failed a warrant due to panel damage to passenger side doors (didn’t know this is a wof failure). Understand they are dented and will require paint. Will post photos when I get some. He is only in Auckland on a temporary basis and doesn’t have the contacts. Thanks in advance!

Maybe they deemed it as dangerous to people outside the car? https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/vehicle-exterior/external-projections Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treone 680 Report post Posted 18 hours ago I know right. Haven’t seen the damage but I understand that it was scrapped and dented don’t know if anything is protruding lol. FYI it happened a little while ago (was driving in a car park and someone reversed out of their park, ‘hitting’ the side - so low impact) and he was uninsured at the time so needs to sort it independently ☹️ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

treone 680 Report post Posted 17 hours ago Good question, not 100% but I’m guessing no more than 8-10 years old. Will find that out too 😁 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
