TVR garage near Aberdeen

[brakedust]

Hi people, I have recently moved to Aberdeen from down south and my Cerbera is in need of a 6k service, anyone have a good reputation up here?

Judging by past performance of Aberdonian Tivs, I assumed owners normally wrote them off before a service was due and then flew south to just buy another one.

Mine is due a service so Iv just booked my flight TVR Ecosse in Dundee is your closest mate, call Barry and he will sort you out.

+1 for Barry, mines will be due all too soon and it'll be off for a trip to Dundee

I got my Cerbera serviced "around" Aberdeen once at a highly respected garage. Turns out they used Coke cans as brake shims which caused me alot of issues. Then another lost the door magnets so my windows never shut.
Having lost all hope of a local garage knowing what to do I would drive all the way to blackpool to use a well known place there. After their engine rebuild failed twice I then took the yearly drive to Coventry where I eventually sold the car as scrap.

As a guy who was messed around alot, I'd recommend TVR Power in Coventry. Dom and his team seemed like decent guys.

I always wanted to find a small local garage that would look after my Cerb but most didn't want the hassle, which is a shame.

If I had my time again, I'd learn how to service it myself.

I know its a bit of a drive but trust me, take it to Hexham Horseless Carriages. There are others but they are further away still...

Seconded. Core of Aberdeen and other Scotland TVR owners have been for a long time, only one good reason for that ......

Not exactly Aberdeen but about 90 miles south, Dreadnought Motors,ex TVR dealership when there was such things

Cheers for the advice guys, I know Barry from when I used to be in Dundee years ago, didn't know he had his own garage now!

I don't want to go into details PH but trust me, I would get down to HHC....especially with a cerbera. Just my opinion though as I know there are plenty who have nothing but good things to say about Barry.
