Nick, there have been a lot of people asking for the 'secret' way in, and a rule was made, that if anyone asks, we dont tell them, but advise you to ring up the person you bought the car from.
I know it sounds like I'm being a PITA, but it is only to potect ourselves - so I hope you understand.

It's on page 12 & 13 of the workshop manual (Service Workshop Information.pdf)

I think it's one of the things an old owner should pass over to the new owner. Mine did - Oh and I had to phone my old owner when I popped the fuse to the boot when trying to fix the loose cigar lighter

Hi, I totally understand although I have no contact with the old owner and have not kept his phone no and to be fair am pretty sure he wouldn't know anyway. I have not got the workshop manual, only the owners book. I am a member of the TVRCC, would anyone there be able to help me?

If your local Indie really didnt know, then find another one to take your car to !

PS; assuming he wasnt 'pretending 'not to know because he didnt know you from Adam
