My M5 looks like it has been hit by a blunderbuss so time for a smarten up too. TJR may have a contact, I will give him a poke...

I have a good friendly bodyshop if you can take the car to Portsmouth. It's called A&B Motors their website is this: http://aandbmotors.co.uk/

They (semireluctantly because they don't usually do this sort of "boyracer" stuff) did my bodykit and respray and they are VERY good and cheap enough. They do insurance related work but they also do restoration projects as well, I've seen cars from the 1930s and such in there from time to time. Alan (the owner) is a top bloke and he will do you a good deal especially if you tell him that I sent you wink

Pete, if you are looking for someone to do the lambo then there is a guy I used and was recomended to me from another Noble owner in worthing.

While I was there (after having the front end resprayed and fixed from hitting a fox on the A3) they had a Diablo in for a complete respray (very nice it was). They have quoted me about 2k if I wanted the whole car done and a change of colour. The front end and fibre glass repair was 500.

I would recommend Neal at Washington Coachworks (just north of Worthing). He has some very nice cars in there and does a fine job at a very competitive price. Well worth a call and a quote. We have a 911 in there for a full respray at the moment.

I think Diablo Pete uses them.
It looks like his Lambos on their website.

I know a guy who does my FRS for me every year, just repaired/sprayed my GF's Cooper S and also does my friends super 7 and Austin Healey.

He is very cheap, does it from his garage in Cowplain near waterlooville, he is a ex Hendy ford Sprayer.

I can personally say he does a spot on A1 job every time.

If you want his number send me a PM obviously I would'nt give it out over a free forum.

Andrew.

I&M Autobody Repairs in Ropley, just off the A31. Very good outfit. Not the cheapest but I guess you aren't out to save the last £.
