Default Parts availability after an accident

1 week ago I was T-boned by a Suburban that went through a red light. Ugh! I was fine -- the Disco is a TANK, and it was a relatively low-speed impact. Side-curtain airbags deployed and the passenger-side doors need to be replaced. The shop is saying that the parts will take at least 2-3 weeks to come from the U.K. Does anyone have experience with this? Will I get my baby back within a month? Thanks!

Sorry to hear that. Glad all are ok
Make sure you have it done by a shop authorized by LR to work on aluminum bodied cars
I suspect you're looking at 5-6 wks. Would have your dealer do a final QC check once the body shop is done to ensure all is of a high quality

That's no fun but if you and yours are fine than it's a win. I would enjoy the rental and make sure the time is taken to repair it properly
