Yep, you can probably double last years premium or at least increase it by 50%. The forum rules require you to post pics of all mishaps.

You may find that it is cheaper to get the work done and pay for it yourself rather than making claims for which you will need to pay excess and then see your premium rise.

Get a quote before you decide.

Yep, also remember, if they are forcing you through insurance and you have a high excess, you excess is only applicable to your repairs. If you dont have your car done through the insurance you don't have to pay excess.
