TVR garages near preston/blackpool.

[shadey]

Heading off up north for a few weeks, wondered if anyone had any postcodes for any garages (TVR) round this area.
Thanks.(Or any other good tvr places to visit)

[V8 GRF]

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.

Extremely good service and as posted above there's always a brew going!

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

[julianc]

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:

So do I! From Staffordshire in fact, but the service and the price are always worth it.

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.

PS And no - I'm not connected with them but they do my servicing and I'm very pleased with what they do.
