    Hi all,

    I managed to put a nice scratch/dent into the back corner of the car (2007 Ford Focus estate) last weekend when reversing out (almost) around a stone wall.

    Probably not get this looked at until next year, but from experience how much would ye expect this to cost to fix?

    Thanks

    Probably 400-800 depending on the quality of the repair or who does it, If any of those scratches are down to metal though Id get it sorted now. You don't want any rust forming before you have it repaired however minor.

    200 or so should do it, of its not down to the raw metal I wouldnt bother if I were you, shes not worth much anyways and it won't affect the trade in when you go to sell her

    €200 wouldn't touch it for a proper job. For a decent result i'd go with Rex's pricing, €400-€600.
