I did the side door and rear panel on my first expert.
£800 for cash.
That was 9 years ago though.
Been quoted £300 just for the bumper corners and one rear door on my Trafic-cash too.

secondhand door etc is the cheapest way out

It's only a van! Just make sure the door works properly, put primer on any exposed metal and gaffer up the mirror you know it makes sense.

Looking, now buying just yet. Waiting for my money to come through. Be another three weeks or so.

A 10 year old van will not be worth repairing from an insurance point of view.
They will scrap it, give you a value of around £750 less your access if you are lucky. They will want to replace all panels with new. It will then be classed as a claim. No matter what they tell you with regard to your no claims discount being protected, it will reflect in the costing of your next premiums. They just load the premium before no claims discount. Also consider that just because you have valued it at £2000 doesn't mean they will pay that out for it.
In the motor trade we would sell a supplementary insurance to cover the difference between what you bought it for and what the insurance company would pay out in an accident. It was called GAP insurance. It was especially important if you bought an older van on HP.
If the van is worth more to you than it is to the insurance company and doesn't cost that much to repair, albeit not perfectly, then pay for it out of your pocket and don't involve insurance. Don't even talk to them about it.
Remember in the eye's of the insurance company there is a difference between having an accident and not claiming for an accident you have had.

So im very impressed its looks as good as new! £250 for essentially a new door and wing!
thanks everyone for all the advice and jokes! ;D
