accident repairs

[ian448]

Can anyone recommend a good body shop in Bedfordshire for repairs to a DB9, front wing and bumper .

Thanks in advance

AM Works in Newport Pagnell - not in Bedfordshire but not far

Paying them a visit on Monday, but from experience have found that quiet often smaller independent body shops can achieve better results

Worth a chat with Desmond Smail in Olney I reckon.

Heard good things about Classic Restorations in Hulcote too.

Give Aiden a call at AV Classic cars near Tring:

They've done several repairs (including mine) to fellow PH'ers and they were a LOT better than the original AM bodyshop that AM in Amersham sent mine too.

Hope that helps.

I was there today!! Speak to Joe who does the spraying

They are painting my Messerschmitt Bubble car at the moment to top concours std.

How about Chiltern Aston? They are an independent specialist, AM approved with a bodyshop on site.

I can vouch for Chiltern too.

I had some front end repair work done on my Morning Frost Vantage there a while back, absolutely faultless, and we know that colours like MF are a pain in the arse to do.

A V Classics very pleased with work done to date...

Many thanks for all your advice, had a visit to Aston Works yesterday and was given a full tour of the facility and have to say I was very impressed by the quality of the work and the professional attitude off everyone I spoke to.

Subsequently estimate on its way to the insurance company and hopefully a speedy repair of my car following a total brain fart by yours truly, selecting D instead of R and subsequently ramming the front end into a wall.

Your insurance company won't be quite so impressed when they get the estimate

So sorry for your loss, I can only imagine the pain and guilt you must be suffering.

(+ the years of torment to come! "Are you sure it's in reverse?" etc.)
