I had the mis-fortune of working for him for 11 months a few years ago.

Correct. He was an ex Henly Heritage guy. Back in 99 time he went solo.

Steve Howard is an amazing mechanic, and knows TVR's inside out. One of the most knowledgeable Indies I've come across, and a great guy to boot. The TVR work has been on the back burner recently as a certain TV programme provides him with a slightly more lucrative income than servicing TVR's. If you need a Cerb setting up for the Race Track, he's your man.

All

I can probably shed some light on this.

Steve is now based in Didcot, and trading as "Top gear technology" and formerly Euphoric Racing.

He's a pure TVR guru, having prepped many Tuscan Challenge cars, but now he's mostly doing Top Gear stuff as well as TVR's.

Well worth a visit; and the grey Chim up on axle stands in the background of at least 2 Top Gear episods was mine having a dif change.
