Hi all.
I'm looking for recommendations to have the rust sorted and van resprayed in the Midlands area.
I've been quoted £15000 + from a vw specialist in the south west. As much as I love my van, and I do, I can't justify or afford to pay that much.
Unfortunately I don't have time, knowledge or equipment to do it myself.
It's the usual seem rash and arches but local body shops I have approached won't touch it as they say after a few months it will reappear (nice of them not just to take my money )
I'm based in Shropshire but willing to travel for good honest job.
Thanks in advance

Fifteen thousand pounds Are they having a laugh.

And the rest of they found any problems! Plus vat...my thinking exactly

Are you sure they meant 15K?
