Hi Chaps

The lady who has bought my range Rover wants to repair a couple of superficial bodywork issues that I was happy to live with. My usual man (Tom Horsburgh in Farnham) is snowed under so I wondered if any of you had someone that you'd recommend in SW London or the home counties?

Know someone in Farnham/Basingstoke area if that would help. Just rebuilt a 420G shell, and that was fabulous when finished.

I've used Shalford Coachworks in Godalming - who are excellent. Quite a few local garages (including Land Rover/Range Rover) outsource to this guy. They have the proper spray baking room thingy as well. (sorry, I'm not too technical).

I've seen his work - five star. And modestly priced. 01483 420 673

I sound like an ad for him (!), but I have no connection, just a happy customer.

A few moons ago the auctioneers I worked for used to use a guy called Ralph, I think, and his body shop was in a little industrial unit behind big petrol station just up Clapham High street going north east.

While I was there he repaired a 330 GT, Countach and a Daytona which I was responsible for getting sorted, and his work was truly superb.

He was almost impossible to comprehend, and there were no signs or anything, it looked like a bit of risk, but he charged absurdly low rates and always did a fantastic job.

Edit> just went on street view and couldn't even find the petrol station, ah well, time marches on!
