I worked out it took 6 months 10 days since I went through the puddle which damaged the under trays on the 6th November 2022 while on my way to a petrol station until I got the car back fully repaired on the 16th May 2023.
It was more than a puddle I think the drains had overflowed leaving a large amount of water on the road, I didn't see it until it was too late. I now check the weather forecast for rain and will avoid that area in future if its been raining.

One final update to this thread, I just noticed when they first inspected the car they took a video of the damage which I never looked at before, I've uploaded it to YouTube...

In the video they say the front tyres had 7mm of tread and the rears had 6.5mm of tread which is approximately what I measured the other day give or take.

Don't know and don't really care. It's all done now and paid for. Just bad luck to run through that big puddle which completely shattered the under trays.
