The car looks stunning and I am very happy with the result. I must thank you for being so accomodating to my request for some remedial work on a couple of small defects and the realignment of the boot lid. At no time was I made to feel a nuisance although I'm sure it was work you would rather have not had to do. Your customer service is \"tops\" and I am happy to recommend your company without reservation. I wish you all the best for future trading which hopefully will soon be back to normal for you post the lockdown.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"author text-center\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"icon\"> \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t<h5>Bill Armstrong<\/h5><span class=\"meta\">Jaguar XJ6 1996<\/span> \n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!--\/.author --> \n\t\n\t<\/div><!--\/.quote --> \n<\/div><!--\/.item --><div class=\"item\">\n\t<div class=\"quote\">\n\t\n\t\t<blockquote>\n\t\t\t<p>John and the whole team at The Surgery worked on our 1967 Classic Kombi T2. They totally rebuilt and replaced motor, gearbox, brakes, wheel bearings, kingpins and steering box. The engine bay was completely repainted and restored to original condition and colour. Every bolt painted, every rust spot treated and removed. We picked it up after the 4 month restoration on Friday night. It was cleaned &amp; immaculately presented. The next day we drove it to the Wgtn VW club day. It won the Wellington VW Enthusiats \"Peoples Choices\" at the Christmas Club Day. I rated their job as a 5 Star Service. The VW Club rated it the best on the day. A personal thanks to Maurice for his dedication to the mechanical work. Need I say more, they deliver what they say!

This was all brought up to standard as well and now the whole car is looking marvelous.
