Mark Howe body repair in middlesbrough. he knows what hes doing but you could be in for a long wait. my car has been in his workshop for a long time. Partly because iv been sourcing parts, and partly because he needs to pay the bills by doing body kits for corsa's, And im in no rush so i told him to take his time. If you wanted it doing within a certain time limit im sure he could accomodate no problem.
