Avon is no more, Bristol is in the county of Bristol now. As mentioned Tiley's in Bristol is the main dealer and generally have a good reputation as well as doing tuning/upgrades etc. Further south I'm not sure!!

Wincanton Motor Services in Wincanton, just off the A303.

Rebuilt my engine, and John is a nice bloke. Not really a scooby specialist but knows enough about jap cars.
