Is that where you work Andy? When I had my Ssangyong Kyron, thats who used to service it.... it was odd taking your car to lorry garage for a service

This is probably the wrong thread to post this comment but if you need yer car serviced, fixed etc., then the guys at Cam Belt Clinic near Grimethorpe are excellent - a couple of the mechanics are exRover employees! When they last serviced my car, they drove me to work then delivered the car to my work after it was done and told me to pop the cheque through the door next time I was in the area...

Good idea - give me hoot if you recognise the car. I have to go to Carlton to get some bits from the breakers - seem to have a few in the area.

Hi Harry, nice to hear from you. Gonna check my diary and hopefully get to the Donny meet. Would love to put a face to the cars, if that makes sense!....Ank.

Yes I`ve been salvaging quite a few times over the years. Always got what i needed, all together between Brierley hill and Carlton. Often spent a full day looking for that elusive part. Happy day`s!

I pass my car onto member Andy Willi as he is the man when it comes to repairs and maintenence just replaced my cambelt for which I am very greatful. Top guy in the area. Nothing is too much trouble.

Welcome Ganno, you should be easy to spot locally. Can`t remember clocking a 75 in that colour round here, but when I do I`ll know who it is! lol! Look out for a raven black round your manor, it`s likely to be me!

Guess where I`ve been all afternoon? Yep Carlton breakers for a good tv tuner module, purely by chance called in on the way to see a mate. Picked up a near mint one totally rust free. Cost £40, but if it boots up my hi-line I`ll be well chuffed! By the way I`ve a head unit if any ones interested LOL! only got the radio mod to swap and I`ll have tried every thing in the book!

.....Ank.
