Car Keyed

[colinrob]

Where is the best place to get the car resprayed they have keyed every panel except the drivers door, have sent photos to ewelme coachworks as this seems recommended on pistonheads any better suggestions?

So sorry to hear that, you must have felt like bawling your eyes out, i'm sure i would.
Word fail me as to why this happens more and more all the time, Is the car your daily drive?
regarding the repair, and depending where you are?
Give Castle TVR a call, had some paint work done on my T350, and they made a super job of it.

Castle TVR's 'sister' company ... This company is the dogs dangly bits for work on GRP... I've had work done there, and you would not even be able to see they had been rounf the car...

Top guys, ask for Peter Hilton, very passionate about TVR and the finish of workmanship..

No its not my daily drive, it was left outside for a few hours in the evening whilist I was sorting out the garage, my stepson's 106 was parked in front of my car and his was keyed as well

They are twats. (ooops. Sorry about that) My sons bonnet got keted a couple of weeks ago.

Sorry to hear it.

I've had a full respray at Ewelme & they did a good job, if your passing Brum ever, you can have a look.

If the insurance are paying, I'd also consider Blackpool, but try & get a courtesy car.

I also agree with Freefall and Valhalla, Hilton Coachworks are fantastic, I scratched my Cascade Copper Tusc underneath the car following Valhalla down a ramp into a pub (wasn't Valhalla fault!! all mine ) and they did a great job. They look after TVR's and mercs but have a dedicated team who only work on TVR's.

You could try NewLun who are around Towcester which is not far from you. They supposedly do all TVR Powers work (they certainly had their old courtesy cars when I was there).

They advertise in the back of the Sprint Magazine or contact me via e-mail and I will give you their phone number.

Unlucky mate....... the police should kill all them idiots

[mrsflipflopgriff]

Gutted for you. Pity you didn't catch 'em doing it - but then again, it's probably best that you didn't...!

You could try TVR BodyShop in Bristol. Jason's a really nice bloke and he'll be re-spraying Mac for us shortly.

Hope you get sorted soon.
