940 glass (UK)

Hi gang,

I need a new windscreen & rear screen for a '92 940 estate. Autoglass have
quoted me £874 for the pair. Obviously I would like to do this a little
cheaper. Does anybody in the uk know of anybody pricing this glass a little
more reasonably?

Cheers in advance,

M.

 

Doesn't your car insurance cover this? If it doesn't, sorry. I wish I did
know a cheaper option for you. If this happened outside your house, eg.
vandalism, some house content insurances cover it (mine does). If not, I
wish you the best.

 

I just got my windscreen replaced on insurance, apparently they have made a
policy now that the insurance price is the same price the private person
pays, son instead of reducing the cost for insurance they increase the
private buyers cost, so now everyone gets ripped off.

It does sound like a high quote, you need to phone about 10 companies, or a
nationwide scrap yard chain.

I doubt the scrapyard route is viable. I'm pretty sure these screens
are glued in - err, sorry, bonded in. This makes both getting one out
and installing one much less DIY-friendly than the
rubber-seal-and-plenty-of-swearing windscreens of old.
