Cam Belt Change - Recommendations

All,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a garage to change my X1/9's cam belt?

Its a job that I'm going to try and get done early Spring.
I live in Telford, so reasonably local would be better, although I don't mind travelling to far.

Thanks in advance.

Simon

Give Nick a ring. He is an X1/9 specialist and fairly local to you.

Cheers

Nick did the first one on mine. As you're in Telford he's your best bet.

Failing that, mine always goes to Heath Road garage, Sandbach.

Bit of a drive, but they are Italian and German sports car specialists and entirely unafraid of working on something without a computer in it.

And I live in Shrewsbaaary. :)

Thanks for the tips everyone.
That's it then, raid the piggy bank and a Saturday morning drive in the country.
The choice is either North or South.

Regards,

Simon

to be honest, it wasn't that odious of a job, even when I nudged the aux pulley and shifted the distributor timing a tooth
