Richard Smith @ Dulfords or Tony Gaston @ Severn Beach are both used by several TVRCC Bristol members.

I would recommend Tony Gaston @ Severn Beach - he's had my chim 4 or 5 times for various things. Always does a good job and is very knowledgable - hourly rate is good too.

I would DEFINATELY recommend him above some of the other posts for Bristol!!!!

Happy to explain if you PM me.

Wow - good first post Ben. Tony is a great guy for RV8's and Dulfords good for everything!
Whereabouts in Bristol are you? Get along to the TVRCC if you fancy a long blast...

Hi pjac67 - thanks!

I'm right in the centre of Bristol - it was actually coming along on one morning about 18 months ago ht got us into buying the Tiv!

Am a member but just haven't played as big a part in the club as i would have liked.

Maybe see you there one day!

Hi Dorrick
I had Dulfords recommended to me a little while back, since then I have had some work done there and I have to say I was more than happy with the service. They tackle anything to do with TVR's from servicing to paint chips and they are only happy when you are!!

Good guy's and Richard Simth is a top bloke who knows his stuff!!!

Webbs specialise in bodywork (well recommended to), if you want mechanics, then here's another vote for Dulfords thumbup

I have used Webbs in Nailsea for over 3 years and they have been spot on. Cannot speak highly enough of them and they are close to you. Good service, good price and always happy to give advice. Dulford are also good and consistently get good write-ups. Also, I bought my Chim from Richard when he was 'elsewhere' and have now placed it for sale with him/Dulford. Either way, you won't go wrong.

As always, for one person's good experience, there's another one's bad experience.

I'd also support the vote for Dulford if you're down that way, or Neil Garner if you're north of Bristol.
