Quick one to find out where people are getting services done in Surrey - I am in Kingston, and could do with popping my car in soon to keep the history up on her - any suggestions? Prices for a 6,000 service??

Cheers!

Easy - buy some oil, take plug out of sump, remove and replace oil filter and fill up.

40 quid tops. 1/2 hour tops.

TVR Fix in Ewell are your closest specialist, check out www.tvrfix.co.uk They're well regarded by all who use them, myself included, so add another name to your list of potentials.

I used TVRfix while I had my Chim. Found them great and can't wait to take my Tuscan to them once the warrenty is out.

Hiya Ros

Out of interest, why are you thinking of using these guys. Aren't Austec's rates comparable (and then factor in petrol costs and inconvenience with the extra milage)?

ETA: btw, was it you/Paul that drove past me into Keymer while I was pulling out of a T-junction? The car was deffo cossie blue, but I didn't see the plate/driver...

I'm using TVRfix as they're about 3 miles from my front door! It doesn't really make sense to drive past them to go to another garage at the same price... and everyone has nothing but good things to say about them.

I'm looking forward to getting her checked out and then booting her stupid for a while - I keep finding excuses to drive somewhere - is this a normal thing?
