anyone got a rough idea of how much this will all cost?
cheers!

How longs a piece of string??
Without soundin harsh, these type of posts are a little pointles because every quote is different, due to sizes of cars, amount of prep work, the extent of prep needed. Best off getting in your car on a day off and driving round all the bodyshops as they will only say they need to see the car in person to be able to give if you phone them up.

There's no such thing as a 'blow over'. You're looking at a full re-spray in the same colour, the bits of bodywork you have stated are minimal work...

When you say blow over, do you mean the whole car? Perhaps having the car moped would help the paintwork, but from your photos it looks spot on.
As already said, you can't put a price on the bits you stated as everywhere will be different.

All the panels would have to be prepped in the same way, they would all be rubbed back. The parts which have been filled would all need to be primed. Any dents need to be filled or popped out too. Then the primer needs to be rubbed back.
Would be looking at the best part of £1k to 1.5k...

Your best bet is to get somone to look at it. Then you can make an informed decision as to what the best course of action is to take

Well, you would still be looking at both sides being painted and the roof being painted. I wouldn't expect the price to go down too much as there is still a fair ammount of prep to do...

yeah you wouldn't just be able to spray over the holes and job done, it has to be blended so chances are it would be top half of both doors and roof needed doing.
Just leave and save the money for your insurance
