Is there such a place that would deal with specifically TVRs?
or are parts really hard to get hold of second hand?

has anyone got any links or phone numbers?

Cheers, Ian

There are loads but they are very expensive. Spider wheels are over £120 each from them !

Ive had no dealings with them, but the 2 breakers/spares names that come up often on here are Bell Hill Garage and Douglas Valley.

In my experience, Bell Hill were better priced, asking £35 for the same part Douglas Valley wanted £125 for!

Agreed. Douglas Valley have lost prospective wedge on a number of occasions, for being very expensive and not willing to budge on price.

Check the classifieds. There is another yard, I can't recall the name of.

Douglas valley have actually made me laugh over the phone before when I called up looking for a used cerb clutch to recon as a spare- "used clutch eh, couldn't sell for less than 700". He refused to believe me when I said that I could buy a new clutch and slave for the same price. I dunno, are TVR drivers perceived to be that stupid by the trade?
