Hi folks, can anyone tell me if there are any automotive engineering companies within the Southampton/Portsmouth/Winchester triangle???

Basically I need somewhere that can do all the chores.......Boring/Honing/Regrinding/Valve guides/Valve reseating etc....You know the kind of place I'm talking about.

Looked on the net and motorsport directories but I came up with nada.

I know of a cracking place back in Scotland but thats not really any good to me now TBH.

Any ideas??

Where in scotland? if u dont mind me asking im just going to rebuild mine over the winter..Ive been working in hampshire for 3 years now and dont know of any down here.

Wm. Andersons in Kirkcaldy. They do all the jobs....Its like (or it was when I went there) a machine shop from the 50's

and very old-world if you know what I mean. You get the idea that they have been in the engineering business since time began which,I personally feel, is reassuring. All the work they have done for me in the past has been exemplary.
I suppose it all depends where abouts in Scotland you are mate???
Theres also AGRA in Dundee IIRC.

Can you ask your man if he can build a time machine too?

You could give these people a call. If they cant do it am sure they would know someone else close that can

Regal Autosport - Online Vauxhall Tuning Store
I know they are predominantly Vauxhall but they do other stuff and top quality from people I know that have used them.

IIRC they are in Southampton area.

Had thought of you guys Mark as well as the other tuners but I'm really looking for somewhere local where I can get to relatively easily.

tpw - Had thought of Regal. They came up in my motorsport directory. May give them a bell

Mick - Thanks. You're not going to give me the name of a well known Herts based tuning company now are you???
