Hi All,

I have been trying to call Perry to book my TVR in for its MOT but the number is unobtainable. Does anyone know if they have changed their number or perish the thought are no longer in existence?

Are you trying Perry's mobile or freephone number? Sometimes if Perry is on Holiday then his mobile is turned off completely. In that case just have just rung the freephone and someone has answered.

As far as I know he's still there. He had masses of work last time i saw him so would think he's still there...

Just talked to the Mott Centre which was the MOT wing of Perry's outfit, but is now independent. Seems the V8 Centre has shut down as of last Wednesday. Really gutted, Perry helped me with my S3 rebuild and always did great work for sensible prices. Looks like I will need to find a new indie in the area and a TVR friendly MOT place.

Just spoke to the V8 Center's mechanic,James who has comfirmed that it has shut down,the good news is that he has also started up on his own and as he has carried out work on both my TVR and Land Rovers I can recommend him.James's number is 07732931644.

I don't know what could have gone wrong, was always very busy...
Had ny last service there.

Is it a short term thing, relocating again?

If not , any recommendations? Is Steve Howard still doing tvr servicing, or is he too busy with other projects (top gear, etc) these days?

Picked up my baby today after my little mishap.

www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=8&t=369723

Vince Pusey did a great job on repairing and respraying the bonnet in that difficult Rosso Perl paint.
He is a real perfectionist and my bonnet looks great.

Funny thing is that I found out that I can see Vince's house from my appartment.

Does anybody have any news about Perry yet or can you give me the name of a good Indie in High Wycombe area.

There's Topcats Racing near Aylesbury who are excellent, I've had work done there and know of many others who will sing their praises...
