Wing Mirrors!

I've just had my wing mirror taken off by a nice chap in a scruffy van! I suppose it was partly my fault as I was trying to get through a gap.
Mind you, he didnt move over at all!!
The garage I use quotes me £275 for a new one, its a heated/electric/folding thing, including paint and fitting.
Sound reasonable to you guys?
Cheers

the van driver was never gonna move its not his van remember
and there wont be a mark on his scruffy van so why should he care
so unless you got a company name/reg number you gonna have to put it down to experience

Yeah, i'll just have to let it go, I couldn't turn around at the time, and he was long gone by the time I swung round!
No more beer for me this month!

got my electric/heated mirror primed off ebay for £45 inc. postage its only 3 screws, so its hardly challenging to fit, just transfer the colour coded panel and your laughing

I would definately get one yourself.
If your lucky it might even be in your colour, if not some careful spraying yourself should be fine for a wing mirror, save yourself a fortune.

Cheers fellas, i'll see what I can find. Although my fitting skills are those of a monkey!
