Spoke with a dealer to get a quote on the following...

12K annual service
MOT

Came out at £675 including VAT

Where can I go in Berkshire to bring this down but with a good garage?

Cheers

Right - as recently pointed out by Apprentice we won't keep mentioning how good Dave Batty is otherwise we'll never get our cars serviced there 'til next year! Might be a tad less than you've been quoted too....

Steve at Precision Racing in Hurst (also known as Insane Racing the Tuscan racing team). Or Harry at Thames Valley Racetech in Sonning Common the other side of Reading.

I'll put in another vote for Steve Howard at Precision Racing Hurst. Knows his stuff and you will get your money's worth. I believe he charges in the region of £450 for a full service. 0118 9034909

Steve Howard at Precision/Insane Racing in Hurst.

On 0118 9034909.

Knows his TVR onions inside out. Used to look after my Griff, now runs my race Tuscan in the Challenge.

Refreshingly reasonable rates.

Steve Howard only.

Don't try main dealers - waste of time/do nothing.
