Mmmm, i see. Insurance shopping in your future, I see. I hold no loyalties, especially when they try to raise rates for a claim as small as this. tsk, tsk.

Geico wanted 300...progressive was 250...esurance is the least with 208...I could do 23- with 250 deductibles but I don't think it's worth it...I will never make another claim unless the car is totalled. I was going to call state farm and see if I could just pay the 1200 back to them to remove any hint of anything (there was no accident report or anything like that obviously as it was between me and the pothole or rather wife and pot hole) which I would totally pay 1200 to remove it from my insurance record...crooks...

The long and final update: Well it has come to an end. After months of going back and forth with Jaguar it has all ended, and here is the final chapter. After sending the car to a couple of different body shops they found out the damage was too far progressed to fix. I talked to Jaguar and they gave me the news. I gave them about 2 weeks to figure out how they wanted to handle this. They finally got back to me and said they are going to trade me out of my car. Pretty much, they are going to buy it from me for what I paid for it and then I am to buy another car of my choice. I looked at a lot of different models and brands. I decided to stay with Jaguar and in the end to stay with the X-Type. I must say I was very happy on how Jaguar handled this in the end. Sure they threw a few curve balls at me along the way (see my other updates in this post) but I just kept my sights on the final target and in the end it all worked out. The new car is a definite upgrade from my last one. Same model, much newer and with many more options like Nav, heated mirrors, and 17 inch rims. I think I will stick with the Jaguar brand for a long time mainly because of how they handled this problem. There was something wrong with the car and they stood by their work till the end. I just hope others with the same problem have the same luck I did so as to fix their problems. One word of advice: for those of you with the same problem (I know there are a few on here) is not to just settle with who you are dealing with. For example: if you are having the local dealer handle the problem and it seems they said Jaguar won’t fix or help you with your problem go to the next guy, call the 800 number. If they won’t help go to their boss. I stayed calm and aware of everything that involved my case; I think this helped in the end. I want to keep this short (some what) so if any of you have any questions or need any help on this subject feel free to PM me.
