After seeing many people recommend Martin, aka DentMan on PH, over the years I finally used him today.

I was hugely impressed with what he can achieve...it's quite an art and like watching magic. Very talented guy!

He has also expanded his offer and now has a drop-in garage area at his base in Twickenham, as well as his Flying DentMan service by motorbike.

This was the rear of my RS6Avant after I reversed into the extended wooden strut/arm from a Market Stall Cart...



And the finished result...



Martin is a perfectionist so wasn't entirely satisfied, but I didn't want a smart repair and I am very satisfied with it.

Very reasonably priced too. thumbup

What was the cost of repair... just want to compare to the quote I got from a accident repair garage. Cheers

It would normally have been £150+VAT, but he wasn't entirely satisfied so he only wanted £60. Even at £150 it would still have been value for money as I didn't want any paint on my car, and a job like that at a body-shop would have been £500-£1k once they'd drilled it and pulled it out, and then filled and painted matched it again.

Key thing is to take photos per his on-line guide and then he will let you know what he thinks and give you a ballpark price, before starting work.

£500-1k??? I'd do that for £250-300 all day long.

I'd recommend dentman too! He practices witchcraft! :-) Gobsmacked at how perfect the car was afterwards. He removed the inner wing on the front for access and didn't remove anything on the rear quarter. He no longer offers a mobile service, so its just Twickenham, but its while you wait and there's a fine Italian coffee shop down the road!
