How much is a respray?

[Lagerlout]

Hi all,

I have a large old 1971 Mercedes 300 SEL I've been restoring over the last couple of years, the bodywork is done, it's been fully prepped including stone chip (paint over). What should I expect to pay to paint a car of this size these days? I'm looking for a high quality job. Recommendations in Sussex/Surrey would be useful too.

Cheers
LL

The car is a fully prepped shell and I've been recently quoted £15,000 which I think is crazy for a paint job requiring next to no prep.
