Around £1500 to £2000 for a good job but does depend on cars condition,as you have stated its good i would think the lower prce,is it already white(looks like it on avatar) as painting door jams and under bonnet can be a task and labour would rise.

When my mate got his car done, he got a lot cheaper quote by doing some of the prep work him self and stripping the car.

Yep deffo worth stripping the car yourself. Bumpers, door handles, lights, trim etc etc saves the bodyshop a fair bit of time which in turn saves you £££

Ah yes,we like the jobs where customer strips and fits the car back up as we can just get on with bodywork which does save time on labour.
