Any recommendations for good Noble/sportscar-friendly specialist garages or mechanics in Kent or Sussex please?

I've seen good things said about the TVR Centre at Arkley and will go that far if I have to... but South of Tunbridge Wells would be perfect!

TIA, Dave

I can vouch for Arkeley, not the cheapest but Skip knows what he is going

Servicing for a start, some of the plumbing updates (the ones that scare me!) and eventually an exhaust upgrade (and re-map). Be nice if I could get all that from the same place/person so I have someone who gets to know the car to help me keep it sweet.


p.s. You'd be "Burgundy Terry" I guess? Good to meet you and Kev at Goodwood the other week.

i bought my M400 from the TVR Centre in Barnet this year and they were really helpful, i am planning on getting the car serviced there in July (maybe with a new Roush exhaust if i can afford it!).

Mole Valley main dealer? Not the "cheapest" (although saying that not bad at all IMHO) and the team really know what they are doing.

To boot you get a "proper" dealer stamp....
