Hi
Finally figured out the leak under my dash is due to the scuttle needing a repair. Seems to have ahole in driver side scuttle.
Anyone recommend anyone around east london/essex borders who can repair this and the rough cost?
325i cab.

You'll likely need the dash removed.
Could get pricey in labour alone for that. If you can do this yourself with help try that.
What ever way you go make sure the repair is not a lap weld/patch. If it's repaired correctly now it'll save you much heartache in the future.
Some of the members on here who have went down the restoration route can advise you on good workshops near you who only work with classics.
Standard bodyshops don't often want these kind of jobs as there very labour intensive. And if they do are never to the depth and degree of classic focused workshops.
I hope this helps.
