Autotecnique are my usual recommendation. He does top jobs, and now they're right on my doorstep too

up Muirhall road behind the post office eck!

as for gary His jobs are always top notch if it's kits and resprays little jobs tend to be rushed but even so he is very good! Garys' examples are on here somewhere and you'll more than likely seemartins when it's finished

Also there's finishing touchez Colin does an excellent job on all jobs he takes in wether it's small or large! Just check out Christina's silver SXi for work done by colin!

Both are not to bad on prices

I think the problem here really is that some people have different experiences than others with the same bodyshop...so people have different opinions and when these are expressed it causes problems!...but people have to accept these opinions from both sides...if someone has a genuine problem with a bodyshop then it has to be accepted, but at the same time if a bodyshop proves it worth then that should be recognised!

Im in a situation where I have friends who have had there cars done at 3 of the well known bodyshops...so I can see things that go on...and in my opinion I would only go to Koni...I realise that there has been problems with other cars before and I know for a fact that Koni recognises these problems...but in terms of my car, glasgow_corsa_c's car and several of his other cars...I am very much confident of his attitude and abbilities!

I have been impressed with Kenny Laird but after his recent attitude towards my mate with the violet 106, and some faults with my mates corsa, my opinion of him has changed...i think when u get the time to look at cars properly its when u notice the problems

In terms of Finishin Tuchez...I wouldnt go near them!...my mates CorsaC and also mates Yaris were done there and to be honest alot of the work is really poor...and does not reflect the prices they pay...someone once told me that Colin charges such high prices because the job has to be done again and again!...also cars like Stevie Ho's Civic which a lot of people see as the ultimate car from Scotland...is very far from being perfect....just spending a few minutes going round it, there is at least five major faults on the car...in terms of cracking/sinking/things not straight...not exactly what you would expect from a car that supposedly had £30k plus spent on it

at the end of the day but its all gonna be down to personal preference!

Bodyshops just have to prove their worth....and in terms of Koni and Colour-Tec...it has started and will be continuing!
