I need some advice regarding repairs to my Aston, the garage roof collapsed on it, unprecedented snow fall caused the roof to give in. It's a 2010 Roadster, that has been modified by BR.....need quotes to satisfy the insurance company...any experience shared greatly appreciated.

That's bad luck!

If the car's in the UK, Works Service would be my first port of call (especially if it's on the insurance!). Got my V8V repaired there after some minor damage. Good as new now (and better than it was when I bought it - they repair nothing; anything that's damaged gets replaced).

The Stratton Motor Company were putting a One-77 back together a few months ago when I visited.

I'm sure that they would be able to help you out.


Edited to add: ah, just seen your location. Norfolk might be a bit far for you. But, FWIW, the One-77 was shipped all the way from China to be sorted by Statton.

Wow - sorry to hear that.

Tonbridge Coach Works are an Aston approved bodyshop and the dealers in the sowf have all of their repair work done there. Steve Arber is a great contact. Very helpful. I had my Vantage re painted and they did a great job.

Good luck!

I had a similar (if lesser episode) when a Harry Potter promotional poster feel on the roof my Aston during the Harry Potter première in Leicester Square. I sent it to Works Service and they resprayed the panel to "better than new" standard. Warner Brothers picked up the bill!

Another vote for Stratton Motor Company. They look after all the family's cars, not just Dad's past and present AM.
Speak to Allen Brookes - he'll set you right.
