Back Street Bodge Artist Business - Beware!
What an awful, amateurish business. They took my cherished car, quoted £25k and 3 months for a restoration, but after 3 years and £70k spent they dumped the project, unfinished. The following year has been spent trying to undo their shoddy work and deal with all the issues they caused. They ran the engine without oil, used Hammerite to paint over rust, botched all the electrics, applied over 1cm of filler in some areas, lost or broke various hard-to-replace parts, and returned a dangerous mess of an unfinished car to me.
If you are considering entrusting your car to this business, you really should look elsewhere. This is a fly-by-night, grubby little back street bodge-artist business, run by incompetent idiots with a history of bankruptcies and broken promises. Check out the directors on Companies House or in County Court archives, they have tried to hide their chequered past but it's all on the public record if you look for it. Or, ask anyone local in the classic car business - engine builders, chrome platers, paint shops - they all know what this company is like.

Once again, you post the same review that we have previously had Trust Pilot remove because of your defamatory and libelous content.
The facts:
Over two years ago we asked you to remove your car after you failed to pay our bills. You immediately (within hours) tried to claim faulty workmanship. Since then, over two years - you have made multiple allegations of faulty workmanship to our insurers – in each case your claims have been reviewed and rejected. As an example, your claim about us running the engine without oil was disproved by the very evidence you submitted which showed an engine with no damage and normal were from 50 plus years of use.
Now onto the libelous and defamatory content: Silsoe Classic and Modern has no history of Bankruptcy. None of or Directors have had any County Court actions made against them.
Finally we invite anyone reading this review to ask any supplier in the classic car business about us or speak to any of our happy customers who rate us 4.8 on Google for their opinion about us as we know what you will here.
This nonsense really should stop. This review, deliberately made to cause us reputational damage is once again a review of your character and not our company.
Don't let them ruin your car
