Hi, my dads chim isnt running very smoothly at the moment after suffering a flat battery it seems very uncertain at tick over and its very easy to stall when pulling away, it used to run great and never had a problem we have checked plugs and leads but wondered where the nearest specialist is who can maybe look at the code on the scu to see if a sensor is broken.

Thanks in advance.

Central TVR of Stourbridge! I don't think it's too far away from you, about 45mins to 1 hour.
Andy or Adrian at www.centraltvr.com. They have done my work for the last 3 years, with no probs or fuss, and they have good rates.
I live between Shrewsbury and Stourbridge, and it takes me half hour to get there.

Good Luck.

Definitely recommend S.A.S in Shrewsbury, run by Mike Evans, specialising in Auto-electrics & tuning - 01743 360370.

People go to him with problems other 'specialists' can't fix, as well as the regular stuff. He had 3 Griffs in last week, 2 of which run in the TVR Speed Champ, which had a lot of work done & were then set up on his 400bhp rolling road with Mark Adams (who like me lives in the area). They have helped thoroughly develop my Ginetta V8 too.

Mine was £300 a year ago, for an unusually long 5-hour session, trying different injectors etc. But you may need to budget for one of Mark's adjustable ecus on top of that if you want fuel & ignition fully mapped - best to ask Mike direct.

Good to hear of another TVR in Shrewsbury

Hi

I am a Cerbie owner living in the Shrewsbury area and in the past I have had a great service from Mike at Horizon Motorsport in the West Midlands. Last year I had a slight accident with a badger and Ian from Hanmer motors in Wem did a great job of sorting me out. He too is a TVR owner and often has some in. He is well worth speaking too for any work.

Hi all, I live in Shrewsbury, and have a Griff.
When I bought my Griff from a dealer 2 years ago, he told me it was well sorted, but after a visit to Horizon Motorsport in Cradley Heath, it felt like a new car. Mike went over it thoroughly, and I leave every time full of confidence in the car.
I have however heard very good reports about SAS and should realy give them a try sometime, especially as I only live 0.5 miles from them!!!
