Follow a Norwich Bodyshop on Insta who I’m willing to use for some forthcoming work on my car. They are JLR approved & offer other services such as PPF.

However does anyone know of top class outfit a bit nearer to Nottingham. I’ve done some searching but nothing like them has come up.

TIA

I used Sturgess Leicester's body shop - no complaints and fully JLR approved as JLR approved the work.

They are Jaguar approved for all bodywork.

You may already be sorted, but I’ve used Dr Bodyshop in Colwick for my Exige (painted the roof ) and for door adjustment on my 4C.
Very good, and they do work for Central Lotus who are next door.

Thank you the recommendations. Not booked in yet, this is an early Spring 2020 job. I’ll research/contact all three places 👍

For body repairs I’ve long since switched to accident repair specialist companies. Use one that does high end cars and you’ll be fine
Remember all they do all day every day is repair such damage to perfect standards at competitive prices and with manufacturer level warranty

Wife grazed the bumper on our Evoque a month back and one in Lichfield did a perfect job
Also note that almost all dealers send the cars out to these places anyway for other than the mechanical aspects and add their margin
