So, the generous Herr Ackermann has given me some shiney sheckles to spend on refreshing the Elise. At five years old the front clam is more pockmarked than an adolescent teenagers face. There are also a couple of marks on the driver's door, and the rear clam. Plus the previous owner was a one bucket chamois tyoe cleaner so the entire cover has it's fair share of swirl marks.

So my question is, who would south coast Lotus owners trust their P+J to for a front clam respray and paint detail?

The car in question is a metallic nightfall blue if that makes any difference.

Also, how much should I be paying for such a service?

Good for you, despite a year of 12 hour days and probably being the only department to make a profit he's just given me a kick in the nuts.

Sorry to hear that mate. Tough times on Bishopsgate.

That will be the guy who wanted to take £100 off me for inspecting my car before I bought it, and then told it's previous owner that he couldn't be arsed to to do it.

If I wanted to deal with a crook I could do it much closer to home.
