Indepenents in Gloucestershire?
Discussion
Hi Folks - it's that time of year to start planning for the summer ahead
My 4L Chimaera has been a little neglected over the winter while we moved house, but now attention has to be diverted back to the more important stuff in life !
It's going to be 9 this year, with the last 7 with me. I've never skimped on servicing and anything else that needs doing, and in return it's given me totally trouble free motoring. But now it's time for maybe spending that little extra this year to bring back up to pristine condition! It needs a full service, waxoly/chasis cleanup, the wheels could do with refurbishing and the front paintwork needs tidying along with the flaking mirrors.
I've been using David Hendry for the last couple of years and have no compaints, but was wondering if anyone can suggest a good independent around the Cirencester area? DH seem to be going more and more towards their Subaru stuff which was confirmed last time I was there when one of the mechanics told me he hated working on the TVRs and just wanted to do Subarus! If there's a good independant who could offer me some good advice and takes an interest then I might think about brakes/suspension upgrades too!
Any advice/suggestions on any of this will be gratefully revieved, and I promise to wave like a maniac at you if I see you coming the other way

Hi Marcus,
I live only five miles from DH, but I choose to use Dulford Automotive down near Exeter (mail me through my profile if you wish).
As regards service near Ciren, you might do worse than to contact Mike of the C3C region of the TVRCC www.tvrcc-c3c.co.uk/ he might have some more local suggestions for you.

I'm just about to book a service. I was thinking about - www.neilgarner.co.uk/

Thanks for all the suggestion, NeilGarner is just 5 minutes from me, so would be very convenient. Anyone have any experience of him? Looks like a new company but might be worth going to have a look.
I did pop into see him. Seems like a good guy. He emailed me some figures for a service. However, I've not yet got round to booking the car in.
