Tony and his team were brilliant for me, I would certainly go back again with no worries.

I traded my 450 for a 500 very recently and they were very good to do business with. Whilst they gave my car a thorough inspection on the ramps, they offered up their car first for my scrutiny. I have not used them for servicing as they are too far away so cannot comment.

I've not used them myself but haven't heard anything bad about them at all - quite the reverse in fact so seen as decent to deal with as far as I know.

Hexham are very good and very thorough. Not the cheapest but no one in the North East can touch them for service and knowledge. If you just want a wipe over with an oily rag and a stamp in the book go elsewhere. biggrin
ETA North East= Durham,Tyne & Wear,Northumberland, Teesside

The longest standing TVR dealer of all and quite simply the best. Tony is first class in every respect and I would recommend him without hesitation.

Known Tony since the 80's. Once drove to Wiltshire to demo a 390! Can't think of a TVR dealer I'd trust more.

In December HHC installed a battery cut-off and Anderson connection for my Chim and it resolved all my winter battery discharge problems. At the same time, they gave my car a thorough look-over, reporting on issues which would need attention, drained diff and g/box to seek an oil leak. The car came back cleaner than I could ever manage.
I've booked in for oil/filter change next week, something I'd do myself if I didn't work away much of the time. But I'm happy that they are checking it through and I know they are doing it properly.
Their showroom is a delight to the eye... TVRs wall-to-wall...

Another vote from me for Tony and his team at HHC. Have bought and serviced my two TVR's through Tony. The last car a Tuscan 2 Convertible bought on the strength of trust in Tony and pictures of the car by e-mail. His knowledge of the cars and customer service will keep me going back to HHC.

I bought my Tscan 2 'S' from there and Tony has a huge knowledge and is also a very nice bloke. He's even sorting out a few niggles (new stereo) for me and arranging a courtesy car while he does the work. Would thoroughly recommend.

I've used HHC since they opened for servicing my TVRs and have bought one TVR and most recently (well, last year) an Elise from them. Always very helpful and willing to discuss options if considering modifications. They made sure my broken speed six engine was despatched to str8six quickly and again were happy to discuss the various options that str8six were offering.

Because they are good you often need to book a service a few weeks in advance.

Only downside is that they don't always have coffee on the go... wink
