Thanks to a nearby river and biblical amounts of rail, my Panda tried swimming the other day, and found out that it can't. Anyway, I have had to ring my insurer to get them to take it away and find out the damage.
Firstly, can I choose to get it repaired by a FIAT dealer rather than the local monkeys they want me to use? I have experienced poor service with the 'reputable' company who they have chosen to use and asked for another. Ideally i'd like my supplying FIAT dealer to do it, then they can't blame anyone else if they don't fix it all. Not that I am untrusting or anything.
Secondly, has anyone had any experience of flood damage and what is likely to be affected? I don't want the garage to tell me everything is hunky dory only for the electrics to flip out later on due to water ingestion.
