Anyone in the Tonbridge area?

[Luke.]

Moving to Tonbridge from London in about 3 weeks and just thought I'd see who's about.

[Roadru77er]

I'm only a few miles away often in Tonbridge working.

I'm in Southborough, just up the road from Tonbridge.
Welcome to the area, give me a shout and we can go for a beer

I'm in Tonbridge, heading towards Hadlow side.

Welcome to the area, hope the move goes well (never fun in my experience!).

[Luke.]

Thanks all.

Moving to just off Hadlow Road East. Can't wait.

Hol, do you know of any good Scooby indies round Tonbridge?

These guys are only a couple of miles away. I haven't used them myself, but a couple of mates that have speak highly of them

One last thing, and a bit of a random one this, but I need to drive my 50cc Vespa from Angel to the Hadlow Road and want to avoid any biggish roads.

Can anyone recommend a route?

[Inverness]

From Angel, head over to the Elephant and Castle then follow A2 to New Cross, then take A20 to Lewisham then take A21 towards Bromley and Sevenoaks, stay on A21 through Bromley and keep going to Pratts Bottom, then just before A21 turns into a dual carrigeway, turn right towards Knockholt Station, past station, and at next roundabout take 3rd exit, past Pohill nusery, and down Pohill at next roundabout take first exit towards sevenoaks, keep going past big Tesco and into Sevenoaks, go straight through Sevenoaks, and past Sevenoaks school, go down step hill stay in left lane and follow signs for hilldenborough, stay on this road through hilldenborough, and on to Tonbridge.

The above route will be fine on your Vespa. HTH

Yes, one of our members is a well respected mobile mechanic.

Larkins Autos.

He does all my servicing. Otherwise I know some good garages, but they are closer to me in Chatham.


Don't worry about your car not being an Impreza, we are not that type of people. Indeed my daily commuter is a Forester (but a subaru none-the-less).

Another vote for GDA, used them a few times for my forester, they aren't cheap mind!
