Replying to an old post but - the garages contract with the insurer may change how they behave - but the OP had a contract with the Garage, not the insurer. And he was successful in going to court and getting a judgment against the garage, not the insurer. I was quite surprised it got this far, it seemed a clear cut case, usually these get mutually resolved in the days before the court date.

That's what I was saying - at least that's what I thought I was saying, but perhaps there was some ambiguity if you've posted that?

OP, my earlier question refers - I'm interested to understand a little more about the dynamic in terms of this getting to a hearing, as opposed to being settled, as on the face if it, it was a hopeless case.
