mine was bout 600 for the actual job, however the paint was free because my uncle worked for a truck company who had a relationship with vauxhalls, so i dunno how much that would have costed, also my uncle did all the sanding down and primering, so i guess they didnt charge that neither, so maybe bout 1500 ish i guess? mine was done a a volkswagen garage, rye mill.

depends on the shop, paint chosen, amount of rust on the car, labour time etc.

If you have rust in engine/arches/doors etc and want them to prep that then expect to pay (for a decent job with guarantee) ?1k+

If you just want it sprayed and do the rust yerself - let them prep - depending on colour and condition expect to pay ?500 to ?1k

Others will quote less and tell you all about how theyve got it cheap coz they "know a m8" but I'm guessing you dont know anyone who can help you so if you love yer car and want a decent job shop about and save up. All decent shops will ask to see the car to help assess the costs too.

DON'T go to a mate or a mate of a mate. i did an am still waiting, tried to put the hurry up into them but they don't seem overly bothered by the looks of things there. an it will be done when it gets done

My dad paid ?1500, for his Jag, a bit of rust removal and a full spray in a Jaguar Colour.

It wasn't a good job, He's since spent another ?500 on the rust they didn't actually fix.
