Bodywork recommendations

Postby MaxTheDog » Fri Sep 24, 2021 2:39 pm

Hello All,
As an owner of my first Jaguar (2000 XK8 Coupe) since the 18th September, while doing the first wash and polish I noticed two rust bubbles. I’d like recommendations of bodywork companies in my area - York, Leeds, Harrogate so they can be dealt with ASAP.
Regards,
Michael.

Despite living in the same area, I haven't had any bodywork done for a few years so wouldn't like to recommend a business today. Rather like restaurants which can only produce meals as good as the chef's skills, body shops can only be as good as craftsmen who work there. Covid and the furlough scheme have seen a lot of personnel changes in these places so it would be good to hear recommendations from local members who have had recent work completed. Mike.
