He will see this thread and reply I wouldve thought.

I have a few good friends in Harrogate that are cracking mechanics. Wouldnt trust my cars with anyone else.

Theres also Metcalf Motorsport at Sherburn-in-Elmet but they are a bit steep for normal work, I let them look after my M3.

my car (e36) has been there for oil service, and inspection 1, Short shifter kit fitment, 4wa. The quality of the work is excellent, and they only use OEM parts. Far cheaper than the Stealer in Bradford.

Well I phoned them to ask if they could fit e36 or e46 tensioners to my E30 M3 and he didnt have a clue what I was talking about and just said 'yes we can replace the timing chain'.....didnt fill me with confidence.
