Default Rover servicing Dorset/Hants area?

I used to go to South Coast Rover in Poole for my servicing but they've closed...

Does anyone know of a good alternative not too far from the Bournemouth area? I need access to Rover diagnostics as I have an electrical problem on my Rover 45 that's affecting multiple functions.

Is Beech Hill Garage in Reading good?

Cool

You could try MJSAUTOANDMARINE.CO.UK.
Run by Mike Stafford, fully mobile but does have a workshop in Littlehampton Sussex. He was working in Weymouth yesterday. Distance is generally no object. Give him a call.

Beech Garage have got good write ups although I have never used them.

I expect someone will be along soon with other recommendations.

if T4 will work on a 45 pm CB750chris. He is in Portsmouth, may be he can help.

Viking garage in Southampton used to be Rover. I have used them once and were ok

Hi Michael,
I have a t4, and have worked on 45s before. I am based over in Fareham, if that is any good for you?
What problems are you having with your car?
Thanks for the suggestion Ian

Regards
Chris
