walldonway tvr

[nickhen]

Anybody had any experience of walldonway tvt in kent for servicing (cerbera)

[number 7]

That'll be the same dealer who, when visted by a friend driving a 390SE, said that TVR never made a 390SE

7.

[RUSSELLM]

They supplied my Tiv new in 96, the original owner had it serviced there (96 to 99) & said they were to expensive.

I've looked at the bills & they seem ok to me.

Are they still a main dealer ?

[Julian64]

Very nice people, chap called keith there is very friendly and always willing to answer questions.

[Mr.t]

Always used them, great bunch of guys, but yes, they are expensive.
Their service centre has now moved, and merged in with their Subaru service premises. Unfortunately, Keith has left, and it is rumoured (not confirmed), gone to Dream Machines, although Paul/Chris are still there, or were about 3-4 weeks ago.

[blujay10]

Yep, I used them and they sorted my Chim out when it was running "like a bag o'nails"
Seem a lot happier at their new premises too.

[caduceus]

I bought a Subaru Imprezza from them once, and got comprehensively ripped off.
But thats another storey. Can't comment on servicing though.

[Tripps]

They're a good bunch and have always done me proud over the years, especially with my old S series.

They've dropped prices over the last few years (show your TVRCC card for an extra discount) too, so compare favourably to other dealers.

[Nuggs]

I've not had any experience myself, but they supplied my car to the original owner and serviced it up until I bought it. It was (and still is) a very tidy, obviously well-kept car.

[markbigears]

tripps, i was quoted £800 last year for a service on my "S"....

[springbok]

They are no longer an TVR authorised Main Dealer.

Not necessarily a bad thing. IIRC, many TVR AMDs went independent due to issues with their relationship with TVR. Not sure if this was the case with Waldonway, however, just pointing out that it shouldn't be taken as an automatic negative.

I didn't say they were cheap, but compared to other dealers they are good value.

They also still have some guys who know the S, so rather than the young guys working on my car, it was always Keith or Paul who fettled it.

[rick111s]

guys. try this guy:-

Chris @ James Motorsports. ex wallonday service manager. took over their tvr workshops just round the corner. great guy knows TVR's inside and out. had him work on my tuscan and my business partners t350..

01732 874756.


he managed to sort out in approx 1 day what a main dealer could not fix in two attempts.

[kev north]

I had my full respray done there and lots of mods. I was really pleased. They will be well lost without keith

I have had quite a bit of work done on my Chim by Walldonway and would happily recommend them. Keith has moved on, but Paul in particular is a top bloke, very helpful and genuinely enthusiastic about the marque. As for pricing, I agree with Tripps comments above.
