Repairs at Tom Hobbs
Have now got my Rover 75 back from Tom Hobbs after having both rear jacking points and the o/s wheel arch repaired. I have to say the quality of the work is excellent and the car is now awaiting attention at my local paint shop. Tom kept me advised on progress via a series of photographs in the week that he had the car. I travelled up from Worcester and returned by train. Tom dropped me off at the local tram terminus which connects with Nottingham Railway Station which was very convenient. His Dad picked me up on the return
journey. I can recommend this pleasant young man to fellow members who may need similar work carried out on their cars. |

I suggest Tom every time. He's a perfectionist. ☺

I travelled down from the North East earlier in the year to have my sills on my tourer repaired returning by train to be collected by Tom's dad at the station. The sills looked factory fresh .
I'll return next year with my saloon for an inspection and probable tidy up |

There's no doubt he does a good job. He has passion in his work, a rare quality these days.

He is also very much in demand - the soonest he can fit me in is Easter next year!

I don't know if I should apologize from the club or to Tom being the first 75 to be repaired by him of mine, but I will say over and over. If you have a rusty bit now, book before it gets worse. Tom doesnt rub down and bodge. He cuts out!
