Hi!

If Norfolk is too far away from you, I have a FANTASTIC guy here near Exeter. He has worked at Volvo in Exeter for many, many years and his mechanical abilities are superb. As well, he's a thoroughly nice fellow!

His speciality is more mechanical and not bodywork. However, he is very capable to strip down the car then send the body off for repairs, panel work and paint followed by re-assemble. He uses a company here in Exeter which I have no personal experience of, but am told is good and reasonable. Myself, for bodywork I use Southwest Splitz which is VW aircooled specialist, but very good and do many different cars including my Volvos.

I say, if you wanted to get the thing to a good mechanical standard and roadworthy, he'd be great.

Graham's rate is crazily low and his speed of work is brilliant. But, all this is in his spare time alongside his main job at Kastner Volvo, Exeter, so it can be slow progress.

Before he can start on your car though, he needs to finish my Volvo 142!!!

Get in touch if you'd like an introduction.
