I`m looking to have a 12k service on my T350 in a month or so, these guys seem very reasonable cost wise,and i`m prepared to travel up north and stay with relatives, can any one recommend them? Do you get a real TVR service? PM if required.
Thanks JB

I'm sure they are fine, they can certainly prepare a race car.

I haven't used them as I'm a bit far south, but I can recommend John and Mickey as really decent guys and as has been said, they can certainly prepare a race car!

I use them and totally recommend them - they have worked on my Griff, Cerb and now Tuscan and never disappointed...
Good guys, TVR experts and very reasonable prices - I come all the way from Ayrshire to use them, and they even do a very good collection service if wanted.

Oh, and always on the end of the phone for help and advise if needed!

They looked after me the first time I used them in January for a full service and other bits and bobs. Dave is the ex factory guy I think and is very helpful and knowledgeable. Prices reasonable which helps.

Yes that is correct JGR have always set up our car, ie corner weight and suspension and we will not go any where else as the car has always performed the way Johnny has set it up for me. Top marks JGR!

A big thumbs up to Greenstar from me thumbup

Excellent prices - for a full 12k service inc tappet adjustment on 2 valves, plus 3 hours labour doing other work like moving pedal box, setting up suspension, headlights etc it came to £423 plus VAT. That included a new 12 month MoT certificate as well bounce

Car nicely cleaned (including underneath) and calipers & hubs painted (not asked for but a nice touch) - nothing really wrong with it before but seems to be running sweeter now with a crisper throttle response.

Nothing fancy about premises but friendly, ready on time and no bad words about others (unlike some I have used). There are other good places for servicing in the area but I will be sticking with Greenstar for now... biggrin

I have to totally agree with everything said. Greenstar have looked after car since i bought it and can only say good thing's about them. Service is brilliant and price is also up there.

Have even had John or Dave phone me when he reads about any problems I have posted on here to tell me how to fix them.

Quality guys.

Another Thumbs up from me, they've done the servicing, bits and bobs and MOT on my S2 since I got it 3 years ago, can't fault them, in fact it's in there now being given the usual treatment :-)
