The Body Shop


Expert Bodywork and Paint Restoration

FOR PERFORMANCE AND PRESTIGE VEHICLES

The body shop team have over 30 years' experience working on performance vehicles. This wealth of hands-on expertise means we understand the unique challenges that come with repairing and refinishing modified cars, low-slung sports cars, and high-value performance machines. We're not a volume bodyshop churning out insurance work – we're specialists who appreciate that your car is more than just transport, and we treat every vehicle with the care and attention it deserves. From minor cosmetic repairs and paint touch-ups through to full resprays and accident damage restoration, our team has the skills and facilities to deliver showroom-quality results.

Our bodywork services cover everything you'd expect from a professional facility: dent removal, panel replacement, bumper repairs, alloy wheel refurbishment, and full paint correction. We work with modern water-based paint systems in our state-of-the-art spray booth, ensuring perfect colour matching and a flawless finish that will stand the test of time. Whether you're looking to repair accident damage, restore faded or damaged paintwork, change your car's colour entirely, or modify bodywork to accommodate new aero components or wide-arch kits, we have the expertise to execute the work to the highest standards. We're equally comfortable working with insurance-approved repairs as we are with private commissions for owners who demand perfection.

Restoration


The Scooby Clinic body shop and paint shop deal with repairs, repaints and fabrications on all types of vehicles.

What sets us apart is our understanding of performance vehicles and their owners' expectations. We know that fitment tolerances matter, that panel gaps need to be spot-on, and that the finish needs to be absolutely perfect. Our team takes pride in their work and won't sign off on a job until it meets our exacting standards - because we know you'll notice the details. We also understand the modifications and unique requirements that come with performance cars, from working around aftermarket body kits and diffusers to colour-coding carbon fibre components. Your car will leave our workshop looking better than the day it rolled off the production line, with paintwork that gleams and bodywork that's arrow-straight.

Our VBRA accredited staff are renowned for producing a ‘Show Finish’ on all customers’ cars. Repaints are a speciality in any colour including a few extraordinary finishes. Comprehensive repairs and even specialty builds are bread and butter to our highly skilled and meticulous team. We approach every project whether its a 1950’s Cadillac restoration or a new build vehicle with the same level of attention.

Repairs


At Scoobyclinic we specialise in all aspects of bodywork whatever your needs, anything from a small dent to a custom respray

Our state-of-the-art body-shop comes complete with two full paint mixing schemes including a state of the art water based that meets the new stringent regulations regarding the environment & pollution. We have two spray booths both incorporating full baking facilities and extraction allowing us to turn out some of the best paint jobs in the UK! 

Accidents


Had an accident? Want you car repairing properly by people who actually care? Then call the Scooby Clinic:

  • We are insurance approved vehicle repairers.
  • We can send out a recovery truck with a loan car direct to your location if the car cannot be driven to us.
  • We can even contact your insurance company for you minimising any headaches and arrange for an assessor to view your car at our premises.

Once this has been done, we can then get started and have you back in your car as soon as possible. Ensuring all repair work is done to our usual high Scoobyclinic standards.

I’ve been using Scoobyclinic for years, Before I even bought my latest WRX STI, the team were incredibly helpful, taking the time to advise me on what to look out for, what potential issues to avoid, and what a fair price would be. That advice gave me the confidence to buy the right car. I’ve now owned four WRX STIs, and every single one has been to Scoobyclinic for cambelt work, servicing, or repairs. Their knowledge of Subarus is second to none, and no question is ever too trivial—they’re always happy to help and share their expertise. What has always impressed me is that, despite being genuine Subaru specialists, their pricing is extremely reasonable. You get specialist knowledge and workmanship without paying inflated specialist prices, which is becoming increasingly rare. I genuinely enjoy visiting the workshop. It’s like stepping into a living history book of Subarus, and you can immediately tell you’re surrounded by people who are passionate about what they do. The whole team are friendly, approachable, and exceptionally knowledgeable. If you own a Subaru, I can’t recommend Scoobyclinic highly enough.

Went there today with my Subaru wrx. Nasty tap/knock noise so they had a look at it within 5 mins and determined it was a loose spark plug🙄. Dan who I spoke to on the phone was respectful and quick to reply with my questions. The owner kev was showing us around the place and had a very good convo about his supra. Wouldn’t recommend anyone else but these guys. Excellent service
