Well after some clown decided to plough straight in the side of me at the Dartford crossing yesterday I need a repairer, obviously it will be going through my insurance as it needs a new door, cill and the rear quarter is damaged.

Now I want it repaired properly not bodged, I have the car booked in for a service with Mid Sussex next week and there site says they use SL Restoration so thought I might be able to do the two at the same time, has anyone any experience with them?

Sad to hear that, always a concern there with idiots crossing lanes at high speed. OPC Tonbridge use a body shop in Tonbridge which they are affilliated to, they have done some brilliant work for TIPEC Kent members in the past. Give Aaron or one of the service team a ring there 01732 361222.
Otherwise the bodyshop opposite Brooklands Kent in Swanley have done work for me (non-Porsche) & been excellent. 01322 669 601
Mid Sussex have a pretty good relationship with the TIPEC SE group, they turn up to meets with new cars etc. So should be OK but I've no personal experience of them.

SL Restoration have done flawless work for me. Only go via Steven at MS as he can negotiate the best price for you and you get your Porsche guaranteed for life certificate with your repair. Tell Steven I recommended him on PH and that you want the best price possible! smile

I am very fussy and the rear bumper respray that they did for me a month ago is perfect - like new, and I am really happy with it.

SL have carried out work on my guards red turbo. Its top quality work and a perfect colour match. Definitely recommended.

Another recommendation for SL, they done a top job on my old 993.
