Hi Chaps, Does anyone know who might be able to carry out decent repairs to my 2001 75 Diesel. The problems are:

1. Both rear jacking points corroded.
2. Both rear wheel arches have surface rust.
3. Rear bumper needs a new central moulding and attention to peeling lacquer.
4. Front bumper has lifting paint due to poor previous repair.

I'm reluctant to scrap the car unless absolutely necessary as it has proved to be extremely reliable and comfortable in the 16 years that I've owned it. It is a daily workhorse and is not going to win any prizes for its' appearance, but I just want it safe and looking presentable.

I left a message a week ago with someone called Tom Hobbs who is recommended on the forum but heard nothing. If someone knows a good repairer preferably in The Midlands area I would be grateful. Many thanks.
