A colleague has scraped his Audi A3 on a brick wall, so has a dent/scratch in a wheel arch and other scuffing around it. Said I'd see if I could find some recommendations. I know Little Knocks used to be recommended here but I gather have fallen out of favour due to problems.

Any recommendations for either mobile or bodyshops in the bracknell/camberley/wokingham area? Is the local chipsaway franchise chap any good, for example?

Thanks for the suggestions - I asked on a Lotus forum too (but specified it wasn't a lotus, so didn't need GRP expertise!). And got the following...

Someone mentioned KC Auto over at Bagshot as doing some good work for them in the past.
Another person (a detailer) has mentioned Bodyworks in Camberley in the past (who also are on checkatrade and seem to have a good reputation there).
And finally someone said Rainbow over at Slough did a good job in his other half's car.

I had a bit more of a search and found some recommendations here in the past for AutoCraft over at West End.

So if anyone has any comments to add on any of those, that would be useful too!

In the meantime the colleague's had to pay to have some mechanical stuff sorted (unrelated to his wall encounter) so has decided to live with the damage until his wallet has recovered from that!

However I'm umming and ahhing about having the secondhand Mito I bought a couple of months ago tidied up (although later in the year) - its previous owner has put a few scuffs in the bumpers - so it's a useful list for me too smile.

I've sent you a PM - but PistonHead's member emailing function is notoriously unreliable, so who knows if it'll get through!

Bodyworks did a good job of my wife car when someone decided to reverse into her when it was parked at work. They are likely to see it again soon as the same thing has happened! Puts me off buying her anything nice as it's twice in the short time they have been at that office.

I had 3 jobs done by Chips Away, Bracknell (Dave Fisher - 07775 918702) and was very pleased with the results.

(A trolley dent on a front wing, a kerbed alloy and a scuffed sill when it caught a high kerb when I was parking on a corner).
