Title: Servicing garage in Hants Wilts Dorset or toward Bath Bristol
Post by: RogerW on 16 March, 2014, 07:34:12 PM
Hello

Recently purchased 1.6 Delta Turbo and wondered if anyone knew of a good garage where
they are use to this car and could check the car out.  Any recommendations please.

Thanks  Roger

Hi Roger,
Might be an idea to ask the guy who owns the integrale that you spotted ? Failing that , it'd be a good idea to go along to your local meeting as they would know who is local. I just get my Delta 1.3 serviced by a local garage where they know about older cars. Not sure how different a turbo is going to be?

Might be a bit far for you but5 John Brain who is now back in the Forest of Dean used to look after my HF TUrbo, Have a word with Simon Davies I think you'll find his number under the Bristol Local Group in the back of VL, Simon still uses John with his Series 3 Delta HF Turbo.

Roger,
Again, may be a bit far but Keith Turner who runs 'Auto-Integrale' in Aldermaston/Beenham in Berkshire comes highly recommended. He has serviced all my Lancia's for last 20+ years. His speciality is the Delta in all guises. Details are;
www.auto-integrale.co.uk Unit 13, Beenham Industrial Estate, Bath Road, Nr Reading. RG7 5PP      0118 971 0281
All the best.
Gerard

Hasn't Keith retired?

David,

I feel he has a few more years to do before he considers retirement. I saw him 3 weeks ago and he was in fine fettle and the business was expanding. He has taken over the adjacent bodywork/paintshop business. I see more Integrales in one visit to him than I do in a whole year!   

Gerard.

Thanks to all who replied.  Am following up.  Just had a rolling road test at Airey Tuning near Winchester and all well!  Yes I am going to the next area meeting.

Roger, Good to see you visited Tom Airey.............. he's a fantastic guy. Last year he set up my S1 Fulvia on his rolling road........it frighten the life out of me! He transformed my car.

Clyno - just out of interest, is yours a standard engine on Solexes or modified?
