MR2 garages in East Midlands?

Post by jsheathcote »

Ok! On a similar note to the request for garages in West Yorks, are there any garages in the East Midlands area, preferably close to Nottingham is possible?

After a bit of poking about I have found a few more niggle on my MK1b that I would like to get sorted, namely metal worm problems. I may also opt at that point to get some of the paint work sorted at the same time too so ones with a paint shop would be cool.

Yep second Jo's reccomendation. I know Geoff very well, he did a lot of development work on my SC a couple of years ago.

Good and fair prices and this guy knows MR2s very well indeed. He does all the work on Fred adn Doris's MR2s as well as Stuart Kynochs..

Nice guy. Say you know me and i'm sure he'll sort you out.

Brilliant! I know Geoff Bloors place. He did some work on my old Mk2 Astra GTE 16v a good few years back.

His reputation preceeds him :)

I'll drop over and have a chat.

Thanks all.

You could try Brian at Powerhouse in Derby. He was a Toyota master mechanic and does all of my stuff. His shop is also right next door to a body repair shop ;)

Paid a visit to Geoff Bloor today but found that he doesn't touch bodywork or welding, but he did recommend a body shop over on the Daleside Industrial Estate.

It is primarily a bodyshop that I need to get the welding and paintwork upto scratch.
