Paint shop in Surrey

[hoges11]

So now I have my 928 areo mirrors curtesy of Dom I need to get them plus one wing and my spolier sprayed in the lovely Amethyst metallic sitting on the rest of the car. Any suggestions in west Surrey/Walton/Weybridge area please

my girlfriend took my 968 cs into a guy in leatherhead today, she said he seemed very good and does loads of work on Porsches so I will get his details when I chat with her tomorrow for you

George Ray Coachworks, near Chessington, can do flawless work.

There is a bodyshop on Goldsworth Park Industrial Estate Woking, can't remember their name but they are Lexus specialists. They did a brilliant repair on a red Fiat Barchetta I had, and you know difficult red is to match. I will try to dig out their name.

Panelwise in Weybridge have a good rep and were used by some main dealers in the area (including a lexus one IIRC).

Another vote for the Goldsworth Park paint shop, I used them before & very good.
For the life of me I cannot remember the name of it, but I drive pretty much past them every day so can post their name tonight if you want it ?

[hoges11]

The ridiculous UK libel laws discourage me from commenting with greater fervour, but suffice to say that I gave them an easy job to do on a valuable car and I was deeply dissatisfied with their work as well as with what they charged - and I'm not unaccustomed to paying.
If they were the last panel shop in the world, I'd do the work myself - seriously.

I'd better recant my endorsement then! They did a decent job on my mothers Merc, but admitedly that was 8 years ago. Lotus owners still seem to sing their praises although I'm not sure why if they are this poor.

mmmm swung by there tonight & they are no longer there!
They could have moved I guess but I had a scout around the trading estate & didn't see them. I am passing in the morning so will have another look in the daylight.

Premier Panel Skills did a good job on my 993...ads are normally in 911 & Porsche World etc.. they are near Aldershot way.

Moto-Marque, Chertsey. 01932 562788.

Or if you are prepared to go further afield, Specialised Paintwork in Reading, behind Porsche Cars. 01189 306206. If only to see the pile of bent Lotus Elise's....

In both cases, mention my name.

Thanks Melv, Chertsey sounds good I'll give them a call next week and mention your name.

Moto-marque are definitely worth a visit.

Just looked in Yellow pages.
I'm sure the one that was in Goldsworth Park is STJ Motors. Tel. [phone].
Better check that they are Lexus specialists to see if its the same company as I'm thinking of.
