Default Recommended Garages Birmingham/Tamworth Area

Hello All,

I am after a trusted person/ garage to fit new front anti roll bushes and front drop links on my Rover 75. Also could do with a new remote key as I do not have one just a key to use in the door.

Anyone got any recommendations as would rather have someone who really knows these cars properly and does a decent job.

Cheers all.....

Suspension work ... I had bushes done at hi q on tame valley £160 so not too bad.

Key if you have a blank shell and are brave you can use was editor (£50) to make it start the car, and to add a remote to open the doors is a second hand circuit board and a £3 cable with software that shouldn't be named. Alternatively there are services on here where you will need to present your car or post ECU's. Either way a dealer for a key is pricey, much better solutions.

Nick is great but always seems to have a waiting list.

Seconded. You may need to phone Terry a couple of times to reach him - but really worth the effort! He built the 75s so knows them inside out.

All the best,

Nicholas/Zircon
