I will be collecting my Chim. next week.
Can anyone recommend good Dealers/Garages in NE Birmingham.
I work in Lichfield so anything up that way would
also be welcome. This will become my only car
(may get old banger as spare if it comes to worst)
so I need to locate reliable places for any repairs
etc. There is the list in the back of Heath but that
only tells you where they are.

Also, how difficult is it to fit the Leven under the bonnet charger/jump kit.

warranty thrown in with the car. Previously had 7
months and dealer adding a further 6.

Pro Active ceased trading Sep/Oct but unfortuneatly pretty much reopened as Central TVR - God i'm lucky having a TVR garage 1/2 a mile away from home......but will not be returning ever.

Editied for spelling

It's much easier if you can do it with an inspection pit or similar. I'll check when I get a chance, but my recollection is that the live connection goes direct onto the starter motor rather than to the battery itself. Hence the work is in the engine bay. If you know what you're doing it's a reasonably easy - Dave Batty fitted mine in a few mins if I remember the job correctly.
