My bro's had a firm quote to do the work on his mk1 gti campaign
Full engine rebuild
full re spray
and seats front and rear re-covered

£2200 !!!

That sounds very cheap to me ????

It's at the place in knutsford i said earlier the guy has done the same on his own mk1

£2200 for all that work sounds crazy cheap  :huh: I'd expect to be paying that for the spraying alone, plus extra for any other bodywork that needed doing, and I wouldn't expect much change from a grand for a rebuild (I'd want EVERYTHING done though)

If he goes for it and it's not sh!t post pics.... cause I'd be there in a shot!!

Sorry to bring back an old thread but it gets asked a lot so I will share.........

Just had a quote for removing dings and respraying both sides.  Told him I wanted it to look good on the club stand  :wink:

Quote £650 (might just have it done in the winter)  :smiley:

I'm tempted to get my chassis legs and around that are in the bay cleaned up.. It's cracking, scuffed, etc..

Anyone know how much that might cost? my bodyshop mates phone is off today and he's not gonna be around for a couple I don't spect, now he's got his Trabant  :grin:

firstly matt brother hows trix...... secondly this is a gr8 thread cuz im desperate for a respray on my golf as im gonna have a lot of different colourd panels on it when i finished reassemblin it with all my added bits... also i know exactly where knutsford is if its the one near warrington cuz i used to work up there myself bout 4 yrs ago. and it aint that far from me either so would be ideal...

keep up the good work lads and keep an eye out for my oettinger kr 1.8 16v powered mk2 little project that il be startin in the next month or so.

I'd say in the region of £1750-2k for a quality respray.

but £2200 for all that seems dirt cheap!  :shocked:
