Can anyone recommend a decent bodyshop in Hertfordshire? I'm having trouble finding one I can trust to do work on a TVR. Cheers!

Hilton Coachworks (or Hylton) part of the Castle TVR and TVR Centre lot i think? They're in Bishops Stortford and i've heard people say they were ok, although not heard much lately.

Hilton look like a good option. Judging by their website I'd imagine they're pretty expensive too! Has anyone had any experience of Tower View for repairs?

Hiltons did my car last year when my neighbour reversed into it. Did a very good job but as it went through his insurance I can't comment on the cost.
They've been in business for a heck of a long time and been doing TVR work for many years so do have a lot of GRP experience.

Probably the best place is Marshall Panelcraft in Hertford.
If you speak to Gary Marshall and mention my name...Mark Kent, he will look after you.

Another thumbs up for Hiltons from me. Numerous times they have had the joy of a TVR of mine in their workshop
