I had the chance to look underneath the Chim yesterday during its mot (passed with flying colours) however noticed a couple of small rusty areas under the door areas. I am looking for someone to do a good job for me. It was done last year, so in pretty good condition,ideally under liftposts to get a good job done, any recommendations please?

I got my 350i chassis done by Andy Turner Motor Engineering
a garage in Kirkstall in Leeds. All done at the same time.
He has looked after my TVR very well for nearly 3 years
and also does some of the WYTVRCC guys cars as well
Email me if you want more details

Thanks for all your comments and noted,will make a few phone calls next week. Does anyone know if either of them wash the underside off before waxoyling?

For brushing off and waxing for a chim Ive been quoted £70. does this sound about right? And are there any tricks to getting it right or wrong?

You might want to check if they're actually using Waxoyl, many of them arent because Waxoyl is pretty crap and not used by pukka rust busting professionals.

Agreed 100%, BH nearly always wins various comparison tests and is top drawer. Peter Hamber does a range of other products and although he doesn't spend a fortune on fancy packaging and you won't see him in Halfords, he's a chemist and knows his stuff. And he's a car nut and a nice guy to boot. I'm not just saying that because he advertises with PPC either.
