Hi, I`ve had my TVR chimaera for nearly a year now, I had it serviced at castle TVR last year and to be honest wasn`t happy with the service.

Just wondering what everyone else does about servicing. I`m in essex and need a 24,000 mile service done, but I want it done properly to keep my car in best condition.

Are Main dealers best or just wallet emptiers?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for you advise on servicing. I decided to take it to peninsula in devon, having found that they have recently become a main dealer and being quite a bit cheaper than any main dealer in the essex area. I had one of their weekend service breaks. 2 nights stay b&b and a major service came to £600. not bad especailly as they let me have a tuscan for about 5 hours and a tamora for a few the next day too. The car came back great runs and drives great very pleased with them. so if you fancy a weekend away while they service your car maybe try them!

Well this seems to have started off a big discussion!

I will be taking mine back to peninsula as i`m very happy with them. If you find a garage your happy with them stick to them.

My drive to peninsula wasn`t bad raining on the way there and sunny on the way back, Plus the weekend away kept the girlfriend happy!!

I have spoke to phil woods before and seems to know his stuff, trouble is i wanted to keep it main dealer.

Mowatts are also very good I`ve used them before for one of my other cars, very good at tuning them up.

Thanks very much to everyones input, its been good to see what other peoples experiences have been.
