Car bodywork workshop
Anyone know of a good car bodywork place in Croydon/South East? I found a spot of rust on the car and want to get it sorted. BMW have costed the little patches into 4 figs!!! Cheeky bu££ers.

I'm looking for somewhere that will match BMW paint perfectly on the work done and above all are trustworthy and recommended! I don't like nor trust car garages much, me!

Cheers all.

Ade.

There are plenty of UK BMW forums which, much like here, will have knowledge of dealers and local bodyshop places.

Exactly why do you expect BMW quality without paying for it??
Those little patches are hard work to sort out properly and I am sure the estimate will be for painting full panels, not 'little patches'.
That said, Antonye is spot on, try talking to the enthusiasts, you might pay the same, but you will be sure of getting the right quality of work.
