Yet another question! yes

I want to have the MINI covered in graphics advertising my business - any one know of any good ones within a reasonable distance of Cambridge/Ely?

I've only found one so far - Signs Express in Cambridge but they haven't deigned to return my call yet. furious

Preferably someone that does a design service too as my idea is quite complicated (but won't be to them!) and I'm completely unable to put it in a design package for myself.

Hannah.

No personal experience with them, but coastlinegraphics.co.uk seem to get all the jobs for decking out car dealer specials round these parts

I can recommend "Gallasso" signs in Hitchin. They have done my vans in the past. Very resonable they are too!
Bit far for you though?

I'd reccommend my freinds dads company Ad-Signs in Newmarket, he works from home so I'm sure will be fairly competitive, I'm pretty sure they do the design etc....

Hannah,

I can highly recommend Coastline Graphics. Shaun and Scott are top blokes.

They are based in Elmswell, and have an application workshop, but seem to cover a very large area mobile.

Cheers

Yup, little bit too far! Thanks though.

Emailed Coastline, will wait for a reply and hopefully get the ball rolling asap!

Forget the name of the company (!) but I'm taking my new van to a signwriters on the coldham's road industrial estate. You can see the name on their building from the bridge as you pass the Beehive centre.

They were helpful when I went in to talk about what I wanted, and crucially, undercut Signs Express's quote by about 30%. My new recruit tells me they do all the signwriting for the vehicles at Duxford airfield, and they've been going a long time.

Also seen a nicely signwritten van around the town with 'ambient graphics' on it, but never spoken to them...

Good friend of mine runs L & M Signs in Bury St Edmunds. Specialises in vinyl cut lettering for cars/vans.

Give him a call 07860 727702, tell him John Chester passed his details on.
