I am reaching out to see if people can recommend a specialist or mechanic local. As I try to do a number of things myself but sometimes it is easier to use a garage. I have only recently got back into the TVR world after 5 years and have learned some local people like PPC and Topgear have now closed which is a shame.

So any recommendations are welcome. Thanks

I've used Top Gear for the last few years for my Tuscan, was a shame when he said he was closing his doors for the last time.

I would also be interested in any recommendations for a local alternative.

I am hoping to find small garage or one man job, as PPC & Topgear were great for odd awkward jobs and very reasonable too. As think my gasket has gone on my Exhaust manifold to the block and looks a pig of a job and I don't have any ramps...

Might try local garage near me that MOTs TVRs regularly...

Central TVR do mostly restorations but they do jobs like that. They're in Kingswinford. Best to get a quote first though, it's a big place now, overheads etc. frown :
