    It’s amazing just how busy you are to say it’s not been that long since you started. Not surprised though the level of spec and the standard of workmanship you build them to. You’re all doing amazing jobs and I know the owners are delighted with them.

    I bought 2 brand new doors off a similar van last yr (horse box conversion company) for £150 each , 8 miles on the clock ,in same white colour for a couriers van , luckily no D pillar or back panel damage , just bumper and parking sensors , job done in a day , without any paintwork cream job , the van looks mint , very happy customers , its a joke how insurance companies want to write vehicles off , anything can be fixed with the correct skill and psrts , i argued with and engineer once in 2005 over a transit van a week old from new , front and back damage, 2 D pillars , rear panels, 2 x rear doors , bonnet , headlamps , wings and both bumpers , He said total , I said ,not a chance , fixed it with genuine parts when in the day we got 28 % discount at least on panels for £5500 plus vat , I made good money , the guy kept his van he was very happy , and so were we , fed my kids and paid my bills 😂😂😂😂
