Good Garage In North East of England?

[classicjoe]

Hi all just wondering if anyone knows of a good garage in the North/ NorthEast to do a bit work on my mr2 mk2 NA Rev 3.

I think I will need a new clutch fitted and a full service (similar to service 4 from Rogue)

Also trying to find standard size tires to fit the rear wheels been quoted approx £86 for Hankooks???

You could try GTSChris who's in Bedligton - I can't say I ve had any work done but I ve parts off him and he's very helpful with those.

Don't mean to hijack the thread but is there a definitive list of 2-friendly garages anywhere?

I'm in Dumfries and always figured Woodsport would be where I take my car for a major service but I'm told he;s stopped doing service work now.

No way I'm ever taking my 2 to a "normal" garage ever again.
It's getting to the point where I'm even considering going to the local Toyota main dealer for a service.

There s a couple of different places listed in the affiliates section but I think there all quite a travel for you but worth a look.

It's not that we have stopped, we never started!

All we have ever done at Woodsport is engine conversions and paintwork, we don't take in cars for servicing or general repairs. I do the odd Mk1 timing belt and look after a few of the local lads cars but we stay away from general repairs and focus 100% on conversions into all sorts of Toyotas , not just Mr2's. However if you were desperate and had nowhere else to turn to we would not see you stuck.

Hope that helps.

If your local to a tyre spot try them for tyres Toyo T1-R's are around £80-90 fitted. As for servicing i have no idea, i do the regular oil changes etc myself and take it to a friends garage for the rest.

Would be nice to have a guy that knows about '2's that would do general servicing etc, as mr wood says he's busy with conversions

Where's Peter Gidden based, he's up north somewhere isn't he? (Apologies for enormous generalisation, if it's further north than Northampton then it's up north in my mind)
