I have moved now and my car is returning to me this weekend. I have been without it for a whole month and it is taking its toll... I just couldnt organise the moving of the house contents, a pregnant wife, a 2 1/2 year old and two cats as well as three cars.... one had to give and it was the TVR I am afraid!!! (but the pregnant wife was close )

Anyway, its due for a service in the next couple of weeks and I havent the faintest where to take it. Its old and well out of the dealer chain and has been for three services since I have owned it.... used to go to a specialist round the corner from me and Offords... Is there a specialist in Wilts who comes recommended? Live in 'Nam and would prefer close if this possible....

Anyone any ideas?

Cheers,

Paul

Hi Paul
i use Hendry in Malmesbury but they are main dealer!! With my old Griff,Rangie and 390 i used a very small garage in Oaksey, he knew his V8s and even diagnosed my oil pick up being cracked, over the phone. I think its just "Oaksey garage". Of course it might be miles from you and of very little use.

I use Hamiltons in Failand, just south of Bristol (off J20 I think...or 19). Anyway, they seem to be pretty good value, know what they're doing, happy to look at stuff and assess, give quotes and what have you. Main mechanic guy is called Andy and a nice chap who seems to know his stuff. The garage services Porsches and Ferraris too so they're pretty specialist.

Mmm, a couple of choices... should have said - I am Chippenham so Malmsbury is only a short drive away. In fact my sister lives there so nice and easy for me. In fact currently lives three / four houses up from Hendrys..... a fact not lost on her 10 year old son..!!!
