The thing with weekend it’s the only time I can do it. I work half 7 till about 5 most mon to Friday. I don’t like making a noise in an evening as next door have 2 little kids and they don’t say anything. Don’t make a noise due to them on a week day.

Again I suggest you apologise and try to discuss how you can work on your cars without upsetting her. May be a bottle of wine or a bunch of flowers would help show her you do not mean to cause offence. Perhaps work only weekdays not weekends, only between the hours of X and Y. I'd suggest not before or after 9am or 9pm normally but in this case I would suggest much less then a 12 hour window.

Good advice already given to keep a diary of dates and times you work on the car.

I urge you to consider the letter she sent and the a/effect this must be having on her.
Of course, I am assuming she is a level headed your lady and her wording in the letter suggests she is and not someone that moans for the sake of it. If she is just a moaner
I don't know what to suggest. I'm not sure if it would be a good idea to ask other neighbours.

good luck
