  Stewart Bliss, posted on Tuesday 18 August 2026 Hi Bobby, Thanks for your offer of help. I have a Toyota Celica 2003, and the heat has caused the stitching to fail along the top of the folding rear seats top edge. I have found a car trimmer in Shoeburyness, and as I might have to leave the vehicle with him, at least I can get home by bus to Leigh-On-Sea. Whereas I don't think that is a possibility, if I have to leave the car with you in Stambridge. However he is very busy, so I will have to wait awhile 'til he can 'fit me in'. As I fear he will have take half the car apart to fix the problem. My phone number is 01702-801981 mobile 07708487172. However I also think this is likely to be an expensive proposition, and as this vehicle is not a classic car., it might not be viable, so annoyingly I might have to 'live with it'. If you have any 'suggestions; I would be pleased to hear from you. Lastly I don't think the option of my 'taking a holiday in Stambridge' is'' an option. Regards, Stewart. PS. However if using this trimmer in Shoeburyness, is 'problematic' I might have to pitch my tent, in the centre of Stambridge village, and risk being 'moved on' by the Police! Kind Regards, Stewart

  Pristine Classic Cars Ltd, posted on Tuesday 18 August 2026 Dear Stewart, Thank you for taking the time to call us back just now. We'd be more than happy to help with the trim work. As discussed, we're also happy to give you a lift to Rochford Station, which is close to our premises, and collect you from the station when your car is ready. we are at: Pristine Classic Cars Ltd Hampton Barn Lane Stambridge Rochford SS4 2AR Tel: 01702 840 449 [email protected] Although we have ongoing projects in our trim shop, we can fit this type of job in between other work, so you shouldn't have to wait too long to get it sorted. For the most accurate estimate, we'd recommend bringing the car to us so we can see the issue and assess the condition of the trim in person. We'd be very happy to have you pop in for a cuppa and take a look at it together. Alternatively, if visiting isn't convenient, you can send us some photos by email or WhatsApp on 01702 840 449, and we'll do our best to provide a rough estimate from those. Kind regards, Bobby

  

  Stewart Bliss, posted on Wednesday 19 August 2026 Hello Bobby, Thanks for taking the time to contact me. Apologies for my rather 'rambling' email, I have been a bit distracted over the last few days. I had no idea that Hampton Barn Lane, Stambridge, was so close to my home, in Leigh On Sea, in terms of mileage. So I will certainly bring my car to you, and your in house car trimmer can give me an idea, what is involved in rectifying my Toyota's upholstery. Please email me back, and tell me do i need to make appointment to come along and see him. If I don't what are his working hours please. Thanks, Regards, Stewart. PS. If I do need to make an appointment, early next week would be best for me, say one afternoon but not Monday 24/08.
