VW Repair in Buckinghamshire, help!

If anyone can recommend a repair shop in Bucks or surrounding counties I would really appreciate it. I have some major rust work that needs looking at above the drivers head and I fear the pop top will need lifting up to fix. I don't want anyone loose on this that hasn't had experience with pop-tops...

Retro Decals/Stripes

Im looking to get some classic 80's decals/stripes for my plain white Holdsworth.
There dont seem to be any on ebay, does anyone know where I can find some original retro stripes or is it something that will have to be reproduced by a vinyl shop? Thanks!

Re: How low is it?

Hi Mike, they are coilbound there is no space between the coils at the rear.

I have just had a measure and my rear is 720mm from the ground and front is 666mm.
So compared to piontes that a rough drop of -30mm at the front and +15mm at the back!
Now im totally confused.

Re: How low is it?

Is there anyone out there with a standard (not lowered) T25 that can give me a height reading from the floor to top of the wheel arch so I can compare to mine and hopefully work out how low mine is? I h...
