I've got a 1997 TVR Chimaera and have a leak on the rad. Can anyone recommend anywhere in the Portsmouth area that refurbs them.

Many thanks, Dave.

Have used Serck in Hilsea in the past.
Found that a replacement was cheaper than the repair but I doubt that will work for the Chim.

ETA If the leak in in the header or its fittings I have repaired them myself before now. If it is in the core then it probably needs a rebuild.

You could try Collins Radiators in Hilsea. I've used them several times, though not for a TVR radiator.
