i heard gilham is no longer operating, though i don't know this to be true. He was in springhead business park northfleet.

 

there is youngs vw specialists in wrotham gasoline alley, only about 20mins from dartford.

Gilham isn't operating any more. Try Saunders Abbot in Sidcup. Family run business and Adam Is a freedom member on here.

What do you need doing to your car ?

[BHPaddict]

My g60/vr6 conversion fitted, cam belt / dampener and water pump fitted, a service as thats just now popped up and need my suspension checked over as the roads in dartford (massive pot holes & oversized speed bumps)knocked my tracking out and now get a knock on the front right over bumps which will be charged to kent county council. Then ive got a downpipe and cat back to go in, the fmic new brakes and pads all round and cos I work 12 shifts at night I have very little time to get this done myself, so need a hand on a few things is all.

Fair bit i'd say.

[group1rs]

Well Adam from Saunders Abbot is your man. He did all that to his own mk1 octy VRS so knows them well. You would be advised to get the oil pick up pipe changed as well.

What's happened to Gilham ??

[group1rs]

What's happened to Gilham ??

He is still in the Motorsport business but not on such a grand scale as 2012/2013

[BHPaddict]

The oil pick up was only replaced in sept so might need just a clean up.saunders abbot ill look em up in a bit.

On to next question do u know of a good sprayer in this area as car will be treated to a full respray in the original yellow at some point too.

Its my little baby so gets treated a lot lol.

[group1rs]

Formula 1 refinishing at the Brands Hatch paddock entrance are pretty good. Or you could give Alan a call on 01622831808 he's near to Maidstone but does show quality paintwork. You gets what you pays for in this world.

well i had my g60 and saches clutch fitted its a bloody dream compared to that old piece of crap dmf though it was totally shot lol, if you want good repairs done in kent p&m in dartford are great, they have worked on many skodas as all the taxis round here are all octavias so was in good hands no problems at all and cars perfect, now on to the next project wishbones fmic downpipe and exhaust
