Southampton body shops

[Lozw86]

Hi all

I had a bit of a scrape this morning resulting in some scratches and a small dent that will need repairing

Can anyone recommend a good body shop in the Southampton area please?

It's a 2013 BMW. Is it worth asking the BMW dealership who their approved body shop is?

Cheers

Partridges bmw have their own body shop. I was impressed but mine was done under insurance and didn't foot the £2k bill!

Stricklands down in the Melbourne Industrial Estate are very good indeed.

I highly recommend Everyway Bodyshop just off the bottom of the M271 in Millbrook. They repair and respray a huge range of vehicles - when I last went in there was a vintage Rolls Royce, a crashed BMW race car and various run of the mill cars too. I was introduced to them a few years ago by a chap who has his extremely valuable historic race cars repaired there. They have since fully rebuilt my TVR Chimaera after a friend wrote it off, given my VW T5 van a complete respray in a different colour and regularly paints my BMW rally cars too. The owner is a good, young chap called Tim and he can be reached on 02380 869391. I will drop you a PM with his mobile.

Maybe try Auto Brite in Segensworth owned by PH StJohn first? He may be able to fix it by a SMART repair instead?

Hi guys. Thanks for the recommendations. I went to Stricklands as it's very close to my home. I received great customer service and a friendly no obligation quote so have booked the car in for next week. Will report back on results
