MOT advisories - sills, balljoints. Good garages?

Area Discussion South East (pre 2020)

My Mk1 passed its MOT today. However advisories for the following:

 

hole in the outher sill

rust behind the plastic liner in the rear wheel arch

Gaiters on the suspension balljoints at the front are fraying

Oil leak from the engine - sounds like the classis rear of engine seal

 

I have been to Fleelance Mazda in Chaham, and they have done a good job for me.

As I live in SE London that is a bit of a trek, so if there are other recommendations I will be grateful.

Looks like from the rust description once it is opened up there will be a rear sill replacement.

I would like to drop the car off with the garage for a week or so, as it is not my daily driver.

Can you drive down to Pevensey?

 

And train back.

 

If so I would use the guys at MX5 Restorer. They are thoroughly nice chaps and good good work at competitive prices.

 

The train journey back isn’t too arduous and quite a pretty route from Pevensey to Hastings and up from there.

If so use the guys at MX5 Restorer. They do good work and at competitive prices.

 

Its an easy train journey back.

Thankyou for the recommendation.
I will look into that. Glad to give my pennies to some good people.
