Southampton area bodywork help?

Post by ja9allen »

Hi there, came back from work to find sheepish hubby admitting to a 'small error of judgement' in parking the van today. Sadly our Kenny now has a really large dent down his nearside from sliding door to rear bumper across the wheel arches, it looks really bad. :cry: Can anyone suggest a decent repairer in the southampton/hampshire area we can get a quote from please? Trying not to make him feel too bad about it but on top of being made redundant and our old dog being at death's door I'm not sure what else can go wrong this year, or is that tempting fate? Hope someone on here can restore a bit of faith in me and point me in the direction of someone good to fix Kenny up.

Or alternatively a new rich husband who can park? :lol:

Thanks Billybigspud, that was a quick reply . Your van looks great by the way, very inspiring for ideas to get ours done up (though things will now have to wait a bit longer grrr! :roll: )

Cheers,
just take your time and have fun in it. The guys name is Wayne. It is a proper shop that does all the metal work and paint. Always very busy which tells you something. :ok

Thanks, it is always better to go on a recommendation and we don't mind travelling and waiting for a good job to be done rather than have Kenny bodged up. Don't want to leave it too long though as the seam has been opened up and in this damp weather... We have had so much fun in the van though these last 2 years and learnt a lot about the van so worth every penny so far. Hubby's daily too so we need it in good order. We will be in touch with Wayne in the morning, fingers crossed it isn't too expensive.
