Hi

I have a DB6 Mk II converted to Vantag spec, also a couple of years ago had a full engine rebuild including pistons / crankshaft etc. to 4.2. Unsurprisingly I haven't driven it much over the last 6 months as it prefers the warmth of a garage over the winter months!

Looking to get it serviced by a local (to Bucks) engineer rather than send it a away for an extended period, and I was wondering if anybody could recommend an engineer, possibly a race engineer to maximise potential.

In terms of the 'work' that needs to be done would be a tune up, and fixing an annoying squeak on the rear suspension when stressed. Apart from that no rebuild / restoration work needs doing, hence the need for an engineer rather than a 'garage'.

Anybody have any recommendations?

Would Hook in Hampshire be too far to go? There is a guy there who is an ex Williams race engineer who has set up a new business servicing and repairing classic Astons. I'll get his details if you are interested.
