TVR specialist near Salisbury

[knk]

Has anyone used a garge near Salisbury, Wilts for servicing they would care to recommend (or not).

I have just moved back to the area and Westover have moved from Pimperne down to Poole. I drove behind a van with a Salisbury telephone number on it claiming TVR and V8 specialists but the name erased itself from my mind before I had got home!

Sorry for typo.

Not exactly on your doorstep, at 80 miles down the road, but I have heard good reports about these people...

I know of David Hendry in Malmesbury, which isn't close to Salisbury really. They used to be a main dealer but not sure if they are now but they certainly still sell and service TVR's.

Speak to Richard, top chap!

Yup, Richard seems great.

Dulford / TVR Car Parts even drove up from Devon to where I live near Sherborne the same day to pick up my car and trailer it back down. Not sure whether they do that usually though. Mine had a bootful of water in the engine.

Expect this was TVR Craft/Autocraft SVE, i've seen their number on a van before. Meant to be very good although have no experience myself.

Keep us updated - it would be nice to know there's a good TVR specialist in the area!

To be honest I'd maybe contact some people who have used them first before booking your car in to see what they think!

It may just be hearsay but I've now heard some dissapointing things about them!

Sorry if this offends them but only what I've heard.......

That is part of the reason I posted here rather than just googled for the address.
Anything more you want to add about the disappointing things you heard?
Anyone out there used them?

Thanks for feedback and email.

I think I may go to back to Racing Green as I may get the HiD conversion.

Give Richard a call at Dulford's...you won't be disapointed, they are the best in the area by far.
