Please help guys,

Cheers.

D&T Panel in Osborne Park are good and as far as I am aware a Just Cars preferred panel beater.

They are shithouse, had work done late last year, minor front end damage on my R32 GTR.

Left me with a f**ked battery at pickup @ 5pm.

They didn't replace the damaged reobar as quoted (hammered it back and redrilled mounting holes).

Overspray galore.

They took 3 months to put in their paperwork so I could get a payout to replace my damaged intercooler myself, 2 months of which they lied and said it had been submitted.

Oh yes ended up being a two month wait to get it in, and then two and a bit weeks for the work to be done, something that should of been a couple of days work.

DO NOT RECOMMEND

I would fight JustCars as much as possible to get your own preferred repairer. They have all the cheap and nasty repairers listed. For minor front end damage to my skyline I was forced to go to one of their repairers. A job that was quite simple turned into a nightmare. I had to source the parts myself as the repairer had no idea, the paint was a joke, you could actually see drips of paint on the bumper and I had to chase the job the entire time. The repair took 6 months from start to finish when it should've taken 1-2 weeks of repair time plus a bit of time for parts to arrive max!

Bert Bennett are f**king amazing. my car is there right now, 2nd time.

washed, polished, vacuumed, and detailed my car without even asking, was only a small rear bumper job...

one look at their car park and workshop i was sold.

That sucks man, really sorry to hear that.

Perhaps it's the fact that I work in the "industry" here in Osborne park and that I know a couple of the people there but all of my dealings with D&Ts has been very good.

I had a black R34 GT-T which was hit in the front by a Holden Commonwhore and the work was great, I imagine not the easiest car/colour to work with.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
