I was thinking I might take my car to Tyres Northampton for this but I know that when I've used them before they were a tad on the expensive side. I know you kind of get what you pay for though and they have that awesome laser alignment system...

Anywhere else I should be looking? It's for my Clio 182 which has a knackered spring, so want to replace it. I also want to get my engine mounts replaced. Not sure if TN are able to do this for me.

Going to be making some phone calls tomorrow so if anyone can recommend somewhere for either job (suspension/engine mounts) that'd be great. I did look through that list of garages in this forum but there's not many relevant places in there.

Preferably located in Kettering/Northampton/Wellingborough area, although I could travel to Milton Keynes or somewhere if the place is good/cheap enough

Try Northampton Motorsport.

They always seem to have a nice selection of sports and race cars, but they happily have worked on my Defender (before it was nicked, grrr) and a friends SLK.

Whichever is cheaper tbh. I think I had a quote from Jamsport a while back and it was around the £400 mark, when other places were quoting me nearer to £250 supplied and fitted

I will give them a call. Have used them in the past for servicing and they seem alright.

I'd go for Northampton Motorsport as well. They did the full alignment on my Capri, and have also done all the work on the engine management system. They always do a fantastic job.
