Hot bed of specialists and indies around here as you'd imagine If you fancy visiting the Bristol Avenue site in Blackpool then there's Surface and Design ( www.surfaceanddesign.com ), D&C Trim, Lawfield Engineering (The guys who built PW's 5000M) and Fred Tonge who's building the Sagaris GTF cars. Then There's X-Works in Kirkham, Automedon in Poulton, Greenstar in Blackpool and TrackvRoad a little bit further away in Clitheroe. HTH

I can recommend Greenstar in Blackpool - you'll find them difficult to beat on price/service and general TVR know-how...

Well, I'll get my oar in as well!  No question that the best around here in terms of experience/knowledge and friendly service is X-Works in Kirkham. Heath and Paul really know their stuff - they were the factory service guys. I trust them completely to look after our baby. :thumb up: Julian

I believe Green Star no longer service TVRs as of mid 2011. Their main TVR guy Dave Bradley now runs Back Home Performance near the B&Q warehouse outside St Annes, about 500 yards from the end of the M55. I took my S2 there recently for a 12000 mile service & MOT. I was very happy with the customer service and reasonable pricing. Dave was a TVR factory technician for many years, and was very knowledgeable and helpful. He clearly has great enthusiasm for the marque and wants to do the best by his customers.
I should add that I have no connection with Dave or his business, other than being a satisfied customer.

I find X Works are very good and sensibly priced as well. Quite handy for the M55 so worth calling in to have a chat with Heath and Paul. Jim PS And no - I'm not connected with them but they do my servicing and I'm very pleased with what they do.
