Is Ben still around ?

Ben is still around and as always very busy, my Mini is booked in for early June for some minor works.

I loved reading Ben's updates on various projects, all quality work

After attending Beaulieu, the Mini was taken to visit Ben for some paintwork repairs to the roof, bonnet, nearside rear wing and area around the rear screen, as always Ben did a great job and the Mini is even shinier now.

I called in to see Ben last Thursday but he was late in.  Your car might have been in the shop at the same time!

My Mini must have been there as Ben was working on the car until Friday, he had a bit of a nightmare as when he painted the car it wasn't the right colour, so he had to strip all the areas he had painted, before preparing then respraying it again.

There had been a mix up by his paint supplier, Ben had scanned my colour and passed it to the supplier, however the most recent Blaze paint that had supplied to Ben was for Verderads GT, this was slightly different to mine, the supplier had realised his error so sent both the right and wrong paint, Ben was unaware of this and picked up the tin that said Blaze not realising there was another.

I had a look at your Mini while talking to Ben and it looks good, you must be looking forward to driving it?
