Hi Guys,

Where is the very best Audi approved bodyshop in the country? I want my baby repaired as best as possible and I'm happy to drive miles to make sure it happens.

The w*nker that hit me is gonna pay for gassing on his phone... :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

I used Balgores last year.

I needed a new...

Bonnet / bumper / two new inter coolers / wheel / front wing / light unit / plus other bits and bobs.. :lol:

They did a pretty good job with the repair. Its not factory perfect but once crashed its never going to be Coustmer service was very good, they kept me informed of the progress every step of the way. I was without the car for about 5 weeks though :?

I drive past there every now and then and although they are Approved repairers for a number of marques its mainly Audi's i see outside. They repair TT`s ALL the time :!:

Hmm, maybe they have improved then since I had my MK1 TT repaired there. Basically, it went in for a new sill (after I drove over a little brick wall ). I got the car back from them with no underseal done on the underside (and bits of old underseal flapping in the breeze); a scuffed alloy and tyre with a chunk out of it; a badly fitted inner wheel arch; and over 100 miles put on it! :x Needless to say, I refused to accept the car when it was dropped off. They did eventually sort the issues out, but, jeeez, how bad is their quality control ? :?

I may be wrong but i think they have a number of different body shops dotted about...
The quality of the repair is only as good as the actual guy carrying out the repair :?

As for the extra miles.........That's outrageous! Mine came back with 3 miles more than it went away with.

Was the place in Romford.
I think these sort of places have a high turn over of staff, so the quality can vary hugely from one month to the next.

Mine was taken to Romford 1st then low loaded off to Suffolk for the repair to take place. Perhaps its because mine had to be resprayed.

Yeah maybe mine took the same route, but they drove it to Suffolk instead :lol:

 

[qooqiiu]

Not possible in my case :lol:

The twat who picked it up from my house...

"Is the roof carbon fibre"?

As he taped it with his sovereign ring :evil:

hi

glasgow audi have a bodyshop, they have 3 ovens onsite, the last time i was there, plenty of mk1 TT's getting repaired, its actually part of the audi dealership, all work is itemised, part numbers on the audi system.

I have in the past used vag or audi approved bodyshops, but this is the closet to factory spec (glasgow audi)

cheers

Mate,

If you want a seriously stunning job which will literally take your breath away, try S&D Auto Art in Seven Kings. Its on the high road. It may only look like a small body shop but believe me, those guys have serious talent and can paint. I have such a close eye for paintwork and i can honestly say they'll make your car look better than when it came from the factory.

They aint pricey either. About £150 per panel. He painted my rear bumper and the job was awesome, if you want to see the quality, drop by and i'll show you.

Hope this helps.
