Graypaul use http://www.mitchellinglis.co.uk/ to the best of my knowledge (well at least that is where they send my Scud twice for paint repairs).

That said I was never that happy with results and would thoroughly recommend Ecosse Automotive in Bo'ness if it's not too far for you to travel - 01506 516 106 speak to Matt.

My cars in Willowbrae coachworks...by far the best and prestige bodyshop in central Edinburgh...personally. Always look through the window into the body shop and always have something exotic or rare. Theyre also land rover/jaguar dealership approved and Lotus I think. Worth a look smile

I spoke to Matt and I will drop in (when it's dry) and get a quote.

Nice guy, thanks for the tip, he says your 458 is amazing!

Quite a claim!

Last I heard the Eastern Bodyshop in Edinburgh do some work for Gray Paul although Mitchel Iinglis are Ferrari etc approved and do most of the work for Ferrari, Maserati, etc. I think they are the only ones that as it's very expensive to get approved. They can produce very good work (as can anywhere) but can be a bit hit and miss in my experience.

I'm sure Ecosse Automotive will do a great job and are probably the best bet. It helps that they are smaller so have more chance of consistently good work. There are probably loads of painter in Mitchel Iinglis which means it really is down to who paints you car and if they can be bothered to good job.

I did say personally tongue out
Iv used them twice and 2 other body shops.


Can't fault Willowbrae at all, though they're always busy! Which isn't always a bad thing.

At the end of the day, you get what you pay for.

When I had my Merc repaired about 3 years ago, Greypaul were using Eastern Western Body Repairs at Broxburn. I was given a tour of the premises and 3 or 4 cars from Greypaul pointed out to me, both Ferrari and Maserati. They may have changed, but that's deffo who they used to use.

Had a very bad experience with a rear ended elise at the above, despite them having a couple in for repair at the same time they still managed to fit the rear lights upside, forget to fit the rear grilles, orange peel etc. a few months of pain and I still didn't receive an apology for the hassle factor.

I would avoid, I knwo that doesn't help you in the quest to find somehwere but hopefully helps you to discount.
