A new booklet from the Glass's Guide stable will
help you decide when to bid for damaged CVs.
NORMALLY BUYERS will steer clear of used CVs if there's any body damage.
Eurotaxglass's, which produces Glass's Guide, has launched Light Estimator— a PCbased pictorial guide to establishing how much any repair work might cost.
The guide covers car-derived vans, pickups and panel vans. It targets typical buyers who may not know the amount of work involved in fixing any damage, or are unable to estimate the cost of potential work. Scratches, dents and minor panel damage are all included.
The guide should enable them to bid accordingly on a vehicle matching their requirements rather than missing out on a bargain.The guide covers parts prices, labour and re-finishing times, and paint costs. Light Estimator costs £3,088 (ex-VAT), for which you get limitless estimates and monthly updates on costs.
