Respray's

[rralston]

Afternoon all - quick question, how much for a front end respray on a Tuscan?

Reason is stone chips on the grill and lower light areas, with a few on the inspection pannel. Bonnet and wings fine.

Cheers for your help in advance

Through TVR dealer you're talking around £750+vat.

That's what I'd hoped, but I was quoted £1050+vat - nearly fell over! :0

Any recommendations for good paintshops would be most welcome!

Moto-Craft in Pudsey did my T350 when it needed a bit of work doing.

Excellent job.

Tel: [phone] ask for Clive.

Normally hugely busy though, but you can ask for nothing (they have contracts with JCT for Ferrari, Maserati & Lotus, so you don't have to worry about quality of work).

Had my Tusc front end done just before xmas and cost was just under £1200 inc Vat at a TVR dealer

PS..... email me if you want where mine was done and my opinion

If you want quality give C.S.Linds a call in Bradford..... They have been the paintshop of choice with many of the motor insurance engineers/assesors for years 01274 727587.

I'd second the CS Lind recommendation. They're near the railway station too for getting home.

Why did it need paint? Just stonechips or is there a story here?

Been over to see Clive today - just waiting for an estimate

Thanks for all the recommendations chaps, and a word of advice........

If you stick huge white stripes on your car..... take them off sooner rather than later otherwise the paint tends to come off with the stripe
