Where in London to have my De Tomaso Pantera oil change?

[tch911]

To date I have been using a Wiltshire based company who specialise in very high end classic cars. My Pantera GT5 is now living in secure storage up here in London (Wandsworth) with the occasional weekend use as I wanted to take the car to a few events that it has been invited to.

My newly rebuilt Ford Cleveland engine is approaching the point at which I am going to switch out the oil from it's first 500 miles and change it, along with the filter.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for Central London? The other alternative is that I trailer the car down to Wiltshire but it seems a bit unnescessary for an oil and filter service.

Many thanks for your help,

Tom

PS - I have also posted in the yank section as well.

I can offer no advice whatsoever.
But, please please show us some photos!
I was going to ask for photos too

Ha ha, why does this always seem to happen with Pistonheads and any posts on my 'Big Blue'. One picture on my Garage...and a few more here by PHer Skaffen:

i am not a mechanic, but am bored out of my mind currently not being allowed to work.
drop it off here, i'l have a go/drool over it for a couple of hours

Sorely tempted but it'd be touch and go as to whether I'd've got all of that drool off before it gets showed at Hurlingham's "Salute To Style" event!!

Thank you for providing a real thread in the London section, not "where is best to park in...". Have you tried Coys in Richmond? I believe they have a workshop.

My pleasure! I have been put in touch with a very ruptable chap who he himself owns a Monteverdi so I should be very well provided for. Many thanks though, Tom
