Just driven 200 miles from east sussex to collingham. Great drive, didnt miss a beat... But....

I started getting a nasty clunking from the back when I change gear or when I coast in gear to a near standstill.
Seems to be getting louder and I have another 400 miles to cover today(fri)

Any one know any friendly tvr service centers between Nottingham and snowdonia that are open to drop ins at short notice??
Here's the route I'm hoping to take::

I have a mountain to climb before heading back for the chatsworth run on Saturday. Rather not do it in a big yellow truck eek

Could it be a loose bolt? I'd drop into a tyre centre where they'll raise the car on a ramp for a quick inspection.

Called paul at ppc 1st thing this morning who kindly put it on a ramp and gave it the quick once over.
Luckily nothing to worry about - most likely me being paranoid smile

Top bloke though. Even got a cup of tea biggrin

Also bumped into Tony who's organized the chatsworth run tomorrow.

Thanks for all the replies guys, much appreciated!
