dropped my car off ,visited it a week later and then one more week later i drove it home all reasembled,14 day turnaround. was given a price prior to the work starting and thats excatly what i paid
if you can get the car to ebbsfleet in kent i can recomend a proper place with a very good reputation.
well i went by reccomendations of guys that have concours cars. dont worry i will be taking a trip back down there if he does not respond. im not a nice person when upset. i feel more sorry for adam with his black rs1600i, mine can be rectified with a shitload of time to get that primer off, well i hope. got a place lined up to do the work, but its a good few months till the car can get sprayed

Don't worry, we'll probably find out in a few months when somebody else starts a similar thread complaining about shit work and the OP of this thread pipes up and says it's the same company as he got shafted by - you know, when it's too late for some other poor bugger.

exactly this, op if it saves just 1 person from getting the same shit job then what have you got to loose ? they've already fucked you over its done, at least get your own back by warning others away from the cowboy outfit they obviously are.

I agree with the majority. This company should be named and shamed before anymore cherished cars get ruined
