Try the sanyai, nearly every garage is used to working on vehicles over 50 years old, Renaults, Fiats, Tofas etc.

Just as a matter of interest George, have a "google" of Straight6 - they are TVR specialists and approximately half a mile from where I live. Smallish parts ie plugs,leads etc might be of use to you and I'm quite happy to stick them in my case when or if you need them. I know them well.

Many thanks  for the offer,parts are not a problem to obtain,basically Triumph TR250 and TR6,
 And I have found an old school mechanic in Feyhiye
.
 I know of St86 they tend to deal with modern TVR's not pre 80.SOO is by comparison an old lady, the third one of this model made and possibly the oldest one still in regular use
