I've recently relocated to Newcastle. I've not got the time to work on my Chim myself.

Are HHC any good? Any horror stories?

Cheers!

exactly the same question arose a couple of months ago, all positive from memory.

my experience with them was very good, had not been to them before but they inspected a car i was buying local to them and fixed all the niggles and fitted new clutch next day thumbup

have bought some bits mail order from them since with no probs

They are good guys. Tony & HHC are one of the oldest established TVR dealers (if there is still such a thing?).

What they all said,^^^ adding workshop Richard into the mix.
I have tried a few specialists over the years but now I wouldn't trust anyone else with my vehicle (and they are not exactly local to me).
Use with complete reassurance. J

I got my car back from them today after a couple of weeks' fettling. The service was excellent. The parts reasonable and explained well. The labour rate was very good. They (Richard) kept me informed at every stage. They were happy for it to stay there - indoors - during all the snow. And they gave it a very good clean inside and out before handing the keys back.

In went a car with quite a few issues. Out came a stunning, tight, powerful, rattle-free car.

Brilliant. Some of the best customer service I've ever had. No tooth-sucking doom-mongering - just straightforward advice and help. And an appreciation that a TVR is a wholly discretionary purchase.

Excellent place.

Bought a low mileage Tuscan 2 there a month or so back and the dash kept playing up on the way home.

They met me half-way between Chester and Hexham, lent me a courtesy car and fixed the dash without any problem.

Met up again at the same place last week and took her home.

Always helpful and pleasant to deal with and they certainly know their stuff!
