50 quid after the phone call to your insurance company. ;)

Doesnt affect your no claims, just had mine done, they managed to repair stone chip which means it was free, but they said even if I needed to get screen replaced it wouldn\'t affect policy.

Might be different with different insurers though, im with elephant

RAC windscreens reckoned a new windscreen is about £570

Nope. You get one claim per year. Trader policies might get more.

I had mine done on insurance (£50 glass excess). Problem is, they (autoglass) couldn\'t find the right one in Europe (grey/green), and had to order from japan.

7 weeks later, all done, but I did think it was a bit dodgy driving with a badly cracked windscreen for that length of time.
