A McLaren is a particular kind of car to repair, and owners around Fairford and Cirencester tend to be choosy about who sees to it. We are happy to be one of the workshops they trust. McLaren work is a regular part of what we do, not something we dust off once a year.
What these cars are built from
Underneath the body sits a carbon-fibre monocoque tub. The panels you can see and touch are composite, and those are what we repair and refinish. It helps to know the difference, because it shapes what we take on and what we send elsewhere.
The work we take on
Most of what arrives is accident, panel and paint work, and that is squarely our ground.
- Accident and collision repair after a knock, whether small or serious
- Composite panel repair and alignment, done with the patience these cars need
- Paintwork and refinishing, colour matched and blended so the repair vanishes
The colours are where a McLaren is won or lost. The striking factory shades and the deeper metallics need a careful eye, and we take the time to get them spot on. Those low front splitters take a beating too, scuffed on every steep driveway and speed bump, so kerb and splitter damage is something we see a lot of.
Honest about the carbon
We will always be clear about where the line sits. We do the composite body, panel and paint side in house. The structural carbon tub is a specialist repair, and for anything touching it we bring in a trusted partner rather than pretend otherwise. You will know exactly who is doing what, and why. We would rather lose a job than overreach on the part of the car that holds everything together.
Quiet from start to finish
We treat a McLaren the way its owner would want. The dihedral doors stay out of harm’s way, the car is seen by appointment, and we can collect and deliver it discreetly. If the repair is going through insurance, the choice of repairer is yours, not your insurer’s, and you can read more on our choosing your own repairer page.
