Multiple dent fixes, drop side replacement and repaint

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 10 Aug 2026

110% happy with the work Ian Taylor and the team did on our VW Pickup. Ian was happy to chat about what we wanted and accommodate additional work whilst in-flight.
The quality of the paint and finish was superb and it all turned out even better than we expected. I would recommend them and will be bringing other work their way.

NSR and Rear bumper repair, replacement.

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 26 Jan 2026

Ian was incredibly helpful and friendly right from start to finish. Expert advice resulted in a fantastic repair and replacement of parts and the paint/finish was superb. The little touches of an external valet made my car look like it came off the showroom floor! Thoroughly recommended and fair , transparent prices.

Great job - thank you

Thanks to the team at Ian Taylor Repairs. My Tesla was damaged by the house backing into it ! The damage was particularly difficult to repair as it was over 3 panels by a pointed edge. I also got a front wing resprayed from stone chips at the same time. The repairs are superb. Colour match is perfect, and all edges blended to perfection. Very reasonable price for the skills required. Would 100 per cent recommend.

Thank you guys for a fabulous job !

Thank you for the fantastic work on my Tesla. I really cannot see where my house backed into the corner of my car ! It’s so difficult to get a paint match on existing metallic paint but you have that perfectly without a trace of overspray anywhere . Will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks me . Real quality work . 5 stars.

Jaguar scratch repair

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 08 Feb 2024

After another driver left scratches on my vehicle Ian Taylors Bodyshop repaired it. They did a fantastic job, exactly when they said they would. I am highly impressed with their work and have recommended them in the past and will continue to do so.

Rear door and wheel arch damage to Peugeot 407.

Insurance company wanted to write the car off having looked at some photos. Stupid price offered by them so took it to Ian Taylor's who did a wonderful job of repair. When finished, they cleaned the car inside and out, I really can't praise them enough. Highly recommend.

Backed into post , completely ruined rear bumper which is half the of rear of car .

Absolutely brilliant , I had a few quotes , Ian wasn’t cheapest saying that he wasn’t the dearest by far , think he was second cheapest but I had recommendations so the few pound didn’t matter.
His work was sublime you can’t tell it’s been damaged . Thanks Ian

Porsche Macan new door

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 31 Jan 2020

Following a heavy parking incident the door was too dented to repair. Ian sourced a new door, repaired a few dings and associated scratches, sprayed all with a perfectly matching paint,all for a perfectly reasonable price carried out in four days.
A perfect job, I’m absolutely delighted, Ian and his team are top notch.

Ian has fixed up two cars now for me and I am super impressed with their work especially to my orange bmw matching the paintwork I thought would be difficult but it looks brand new again 😍
I hope I don’t have/need to use their services again but would use them again and again.

A few words of thanks to you and your team at the workshop.

The dream of returning my Lowlight to the road, has become a reality. Without your help it would still be sitting in the garage, just another pipe dream, now its on its way I cannot thank you enough for what your team have done for me.

Brilliant job repairing rust on 6 series BMW

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 31 Aug 2016

Cut out rust on both wings and large areas of chassis around engine bay from '89 BMW 635. I'm absolutely delighted with the result. Ian took photos all through the job that shows just how much work was required. When I took the car in, I thought there were small areas of rust on the lower front corners of each front wing. The reality was that there was a lot more rust hidden behind the wings. The battery compartment was so full of holes it was surprising the battery hadn't dropped through to the road. It was the same situation on the side of the car.

Excellent job. I highly recommend Ian Taylor and his team.

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 06 Mar 2016

Took my Mokka into Ian Taylor having found them on a Google search for bodywork specialist. I'd stupidly scratched n dented a door. Ian Taylor specialist repaired it on day I requested. They done an excellent job , you wouldn't even notice a repair and spray had been done. I'll highly recommended this company .

An outstanding restoration

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 30 Jan 2015

The quality if the restoration work that Ian Tayor Body Repairs performed on a neglected 50 year old Austin Cambridge is truly outstanding, replacing rust and filler with new metal and matching the paint colour exactly. The team are friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful. The car looks as if it has just left the showroom.

Excellent service and great job!

StarStarStarStarStar5 / 5by on 10 Nov 2014

I stupidly tore the bumper off my EClass Mercedes by getting it caught on a low wall/pavement. I really didn't want to get tangled up with the insurance process that Mercedes were trying to draw me into... an expensive quote and 4 days in the body shop... 4 days without my car??

Ian Taylor have done a fantastic repair job - no new bumper or side panel required. The work was completed in a morning (I went on Saturday - the work was done on Monday) and it's as good as new and a fraction of the price!

Thank you so much - I fully recommend this garage for all your body work. A great place to see classic cars being restored too!!
