Is there a Caterham Specialist in the Dorset area?

I seem to have spent an age looking on Google with no luck!

If you're not in deepest darkest Dorset I can thoroughly recommend some that's just a mere 50 miles away rather than 100. wink

A really nice guy and has done great work on mine and many other Caterham owners in the area. Built and hill climbed his own Caterham in the past so he really knows them well.

Why not pop down to the Dorset 7's meeting tomorrow night (Tuesday 19th). I'm sure you'll get good advice there and don't worry about a 'club membership' as a lot of us aren't in any club we just love the car :-)

Local Area Meeting: (a very casual event from ~ 7pm - 10:30pm with non Lotus 7 club members always welcome)
Date: Third Tuesday of each month
Location: Weld Arms, East Lulworth, Wareham BH20 5QQ
Details Link: http://www.weldarms.co.uk/

I'm going tomorrow as I only live up the road in Bovington, I spoke with Tim yesterday and I'm looking forward to it.

There's a Vincent Hayden or Haydon I think the name is, he has a small showroom alongside Hills of Lymington, a car sales room ( and there's a car wash there too) on the main New Milton to Lymington Road, on the left as you approach Lymington and before the Shell Garage on the right and the roundabout where you would take the second exit to Lym. I have never met him but apparently he has loads of experience with Caterhams, he has three for sale in the showroom, and with a very friendly and helpful salesman there name of Paul (I think!) hope this helps, Tony.

I've just spoken to Vincent, he couldn't have been more helpful or friendly!

He's clearly really enthusiastic about Caterham and Lotus cars and runs two Caterhams himself.

He'll be getting my car in September for a big service to include sump foam and gasket - good shout Tony, thanks.

It was nice to meet everyone last night, a really friendly crowd and some great cars - I'm looking forward to next month!

Does anyone have contact details for Vincent or a business address / website?

Many thanks
