So, we were heading to my sisters for a fathers day BBQ yesterday and some woman blew a red light, I swerved trying to avoid impact and instead of her crashing into my wife's or my 1 year sitting behind her she made impact with my right rear quarter panel. Lots of scrapes, and some dented aluminum right above the right rear wheel well. Car is drivable, just looks like ****.
We're all fine, but now I have to add this to my list of stuff to deal with...
So I call the police, they come and she admits fault, etc......
Now, I need to take this to get fixed. Only two certified Jaguar repair facilities are next to each other in Ashland, Ma. Should I go to Hollis Autobody, or Herb Chambers, or somewhere else???

Also, kicking myself that I didn't lease it! Now I have a 6 month old XF that will have a ding on the carfax.....oh, well..nothing I can do about that and can't really claim diminished value in Mass...at least nobody was hurt.

 

Chose Hollis, can goes in 7/10/2017.

 

Finally, picked the XF up this morning....thrilled to have it back. Been driving a rental Ford Fusion Hybrid for the past 2.5 weeks....that car may be great on gas but can't get out of it's own way!!

Hollis Autobody did a fantastic job!

Resurrecting old thread. @Yehaman Do you mind sharing info on body shop you used?
I have road debris damage to hood and fender: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...damage-274608/
Looking for good body shop. The guy I know, he is best in the business and service as far as I know and he said he does not have experience working with these bodies.
Regards,

 

...and share the body shop to the rest of us too! While not in dire straights, it would be great to be prepared.
