When my beloved 911 was scraped with damage to the bumper and wheel, they booked the car in, ordered the parts, liaised with the insurer of the other vehicle and conducted the repair to the best standard in rapid time. Work was meticulous, everybody at the workshop said hello and was super friendly and helpful, and you just get a sense your pride and joy is in the right place when you leave it there.
The service I received from Road & Race was second to none. From the initial call right through to the delivery (return) of my car, the customer service was brilliant. Everyone I spoke to on the phone was polite, friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. I received regular updates about my repair throughout the whole process.
If you need a bodywork repair, this is the place to go. The service and staff are friendly and brilliant at their job. The bodywork repair they did for me is absolutely fantastic. The car has come back to me looking like a new car. Very highly recommended.
This company is a must if you need a repair, the quality and workmanship is second to none infact outstanding. I’ve just had my Audi A6 repaired there and the job is perfect, will definitely be using again and highly recommend. 10 out of 10.
A great all round experience. From the initial inquiry with Steve, to the swift repair and amazing customer service. Especially understanding of my daughter’s special needs and carried out the body repair promptly and to an excellent standard. I would highly recommend.
