Tonight my pride and joy was hit by a moron notlooking where he was going.
Fortunatley I have a witness.
But where do I go to get it fixed?
I know a place in Strood who are good,but I doubt they know much about Scoobies.
Any recommendations of good knowledgeable body shops in NW kent, SE London, would be most welcome.

Know how you feel.

Yesterday, exactly 1 week after collecting our brand new scoob, a "White van" delivery driver reversed into ours.

Fortunatley it happened just outside my office at work, so when I looked out the window and thought it was a tad on the close side, I went out for a closer inspection.

He didn't have a clue that his bumper was sitting on top of the rear skirt. Fortunately it's only caused a small dink in the bumper - BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT.

Hope you get yours sorted.

Gaz cheers.
I am sure that the place I know can do it,the damage is not too bad.
I just wondered if anyone had experience a Subaru orientated bodyshop.

Cotswold Subaru (Cross Country Vehicles until very recently) did my STi8 after hitting a deer when it was a week and a half old. Excellent work. 01993 776622 - albeit a little off the beaten track for you.

If they're paying make sure it's done by Subaru. If you keep up your bodywork warranty you shouldn't have any issues for years.

Good luck - a cr@p parker put a dent in my rear passenger door when it was 4 weeks old at Sainsburys and a vandal put big dent and huge scratch in the other rear passenger door a few weeks ago.

Mines JDM, I doubt that a subaru dealer would touch it.
However I will try my local dealer, as I think they have a good reputation

I was intending to come, may or may not come in my car.
edited to say anywhere between Darford Medway towns would be good.
