Hi Robert
I'm in Bristol ( maybe 90 mins away) and can probably sort this for you whilst relocating the roof motor to the boot, but I'm not available for a week or two.

I'll PM you my details and we can discuss the options.

Hi and sorry to have missed this thread. I'm based in Llandysul - 20 mls from Carmarthen. Drive to London most weeks though sadly. E86 gradually coming back to life !

Now I'm largely based in West Wales I'm looking for an indy closer than London ! Huzee4 was recommending a garage in Swansea back in April 2019 - Does anyone have the details please, assuming they are still around ?

Thanks all.

The A477 is awesome, great drive from where you are going to be living down into Tenby, also from Laugharne along the Coastal Road into Tenby is very picturesque !

I'n in saundersfoot too, not quite as far West as you can go but far enough. Some absolutely beautiful scenery and landscapes to take in around here, I've moved away two or three times but it keeps it's claws in you, I've found my way back more than once.

If ever you visit the area and need advice / guidance let me know, have some good relationships with local indies too if and when required :thumbsup:
