Anyone know of a good rolling road in the Exeter/Taunton area?

Best one round these parts, as suggested to another PH'er recently, is The Tipton Garage, at Tipton St.John, between Ottery St.Mary and Sidmouth.

Tends to be very busy though (good reputation does that).

Can 2nd Tipton - ask for Steve Miles (good friend of mine & top chap)

Thirded (if that's a word?) Steve's a top bloke and really knows his stuff on all types of engine from k-series in the Elise to my ancient webered pinto Very reasonable prices too.

Excellent, thank for the response and endorsement everyone, I'm hopefully sorting a bit of a rolling road shoot-out for the SWPH crew on Saturday 24th!

Doubt Steve (at Tipton) will go for that! I was down there a few weeks ago and he mentioned a group of TVR owners were keen on a shoot out which he didn't fancy doing to much. He didn't want to be bombarded with the "so why isn't my car xxxBHP like it should be?" type questions

TVR lot wouldn't be like that, it's only a bit of fun not like the RS Turbo bunch!
