    Sill repair in Hampshire (Portsmouth)

     First post and I'm looking for a repair! Just bought a 98 model and one side (nearside) needs the usual repair done to the sill just by the wheelarch. Can anyone reccomend somebody for an economical repair? The offside sill is perfect.

    See photo for extent of rot. Got £250 off as an allowance for this. Car has had only 2 owners, full Mazda s/h and 47k miles.

    Thanks in advance, looking forward to being a regular on the forum, hopefully not mainly in this section!

    I've just replied to your other post.

    I'm portsmouth born.. lived there all my life.. still here now, but just moved into my new unit in winchester. Give me a call on 07817716711

    You'll have change from your £250 off for a tank of fuel and a job that looks 99% almost factory.

    Take care

    Paul at autolink is good.. he taught me.

    I've no experience of Julians welding. He used to work at autolink.. before me, but I know Paul was brought in to do the welding... if that helps at all.
