Further to my initial post on the 25th of July with the fact that rear end of my M3W had been badly damaged by two examples of British low life who were not looking where they were going, I am pleased to report that I had my car returned to me yesterday from Williams Automobiles who carried out the rebuild.
A considerable amount of the time was spent waiting for MMC to:- a) Quote the cost of all the parts required (including a new body) and b) Actually supply the items required.
I have to say that Williams have done a truly excellent job of the rebuild which included fitting a new (i.e. late) body onto an early (2012) chassis. Their work was also made more complicated by the large number of modifications I have carried out on the car and which they put back exactly as I had them. They turned it round fairly quickly once they got all the bits from MMC and also the go ahead from the third party's insurance.
Particular praise must go to Paul Booth who is the mechanic who worked on my car and has been with Williams for about 1 year. He is very meticulous in his work and his attention to detail is second to none. Having said that I am sure the other guys (Laury and Tom) would have done an equally good job.
As I said in my original post, I have in fact got it back when it is now getting dark at 4 o'clock and there is also plenty of salt on the road so I am waiting for a good dry spell after some heavy rain before putting it to the test.

So good to hear that, Keith. Well done, mate.
