Hi John,

 

I only collected the car on Saturday. Initial assessment hints at:

 

New Bonnet

New Wings

New Front Valance

New Front Windscreen Surround

New Rear Valance

New Sills

 

Do you know and good people locally who are good at replacing panels and have experience of working on Mini's?

 

Thanks,

 

Ben

I've used East Anglian Mini Centre in Ipswich not cheap but quality work, Ted the owner is also a really nice bloke and very knowledgeable about all things Mini.

This ^^^

Chap in attlebourgh too called Taylor motors. Will do a decent job and won’t have your eyes out.

Decent mechanic in Norwich called James at minifarm. Don’t think he does many resto snow but could be worth a look.

I wouldn’t recommend any others locally.
