Had car serviced and was told that the underside, especially front and rear arms were getting slight surface corrosion, damn sea side living! and was recommended an under body treatment i.e sanded, rust treated, and wax oiled. Have been quoted £230 by the subaru bodyshop at dingles but am still waiting on a phone call to book in.
Wanted to know if there was anyone more local to yarmouth or knows of anyone whos does it incase I can't get in when needed in 2 weeks time. Cheers

That sounds like a pretty good price for a dealers actually - I think it's a pain in the ar$e job so I'd happily pay that out to have it done!

How much?  It's only £85 for a Grand Cherokee and they are some what larger than an Impreza
