Getting a service booked

[davido140]

Seems a little harder than I remember....

Is this a particularly busy time of year or is everyone still on holidays?

I dont have the time to take a day off work to go up to TVR Power so I'm trying a few of the "recommended" specialists/dealers in the south, tried 3 places 4-5 times each and not had the phone answered once.

Maybe a lot of places closed for longer than usual and have only gone back today - to find lots of messages perhaps?

Taylor TVR in Kent are open 01622 718314. Comes highly recommended.

I'd say this is the most likely cause. And a good indie is always busy anyway, I usually book my services 4-6 weeks in advance.....

Try www.fernhurst-tvr.co.uk they will be open for sure..

APM came through, first time of trying, good on em!

Even managed to get booked in at pretty short notice!

Will be a bit wierd taking the car somewhere different!

I reckon its good to mix (decent) service places - people have different priorities and also pick each other up on things.

I've used APM and Tuscan running well.

David Batty is not too far from you.

Andy at APM - good lad. My Chim ran really sweetly (and still is!) after the service.

Need to get mine booked in for sometime in March.
Best start ringing about then

I know TVR Power are only just back from their hols today - so you'd probably fare just about the same there trying to get through on the first morning back after a week or two off... Am sure they're all probably just as rushed off their feet for a day or two.

I rang Power yesterday and Dom got back to me within 15mins to get car booked in for it's annual service
