Early start

Beautiful sunny morning with an early start ahead of a busy day at the workshop.Our first visitor was David who had got in touch back in April, as a result of one our business cards being slotted under the wipers of his MGF 143 VVC, courtesy of Susan Farley, when stopping off in Rothbury on a day out.

David stayed over locally last night and we returned him back to his digs so he could spend the day in York.Cambelt service carried out, alternator belt replaced, radiator replaced (his was the original that was a tad on the crumbly side), new grills fitted to the front, oil change, the slam panel etc needed a bit of fettling and new shiny kit fitted, few other niggles sorted out too. Good to see the smile on David’s face when we picked him back up and he saw the changes. Big thanks to Susan from us and David.



Great to meet Phil finally, who came over for a health check on his new acquisition, a TF 135 in Royal Blue. Date booked in next year ahead of the MOT. Hope you both enjoyed your run out to Dalby Forest, we know you’re waiting for the hard top comments! Great to meet you and have a chat, look forward to seeing you again next year!

Ray had got in touch a couple of days ago as he had noticed a slight loss in coolant, so he popped over, from Hull, for us to investigate what was occurring. Finally it was sourced to be the heater control valve that had sprung a leak. One is now on order and date to be arranged to fit. Really nice to have a chat and a catch-up.Finishing touches done to Zara, ahead of her return home. Bit tired now, but a really enjoyable day. Admin time now and Gas Monkey to watch followed by an episode of the Grand Tour.

Have a great weekend everyone.
