New to the area - looking for recommendations

Hello everyone,

We’re new to the area (Stubbington) having just moved from Wokingham in Berkshire - yes we’ve changed the area in our profile from South Central to Solent. We’re hoping to come along to some meets or events soon. However…

Due to moving and the pandemic our poor little NC has been neglected the last two years and at the last MOT we were told to get the advanced corrosion on both subframes and rear suspensions arms fixed ASAP.

Does anyone have any recommendations for who we can take our car to?

Thanks in advance.

Graham and Lesley

it might be abit far for you but there is a very good mx5 specialist on the leister side of melton mowbray
Thrussington garage.
i recently had my NC2 undersealed there.
they did a really good job and they coated the subframes as part of the job.
here the thread i made with all the pictures they took as they did the work

The MX-5 Restorer in Pevensey is worth the Saturday morning drive…

Free 19 (?) Point inspection and an honest option on how best to proceed.

Pop into MX5Parts as it’s close to you and chat to Andy: very knowledgeable and supportive of OC. Welcome to the Area.
Best wishes, Roger

Hi Graham_Lesley,
Just caught up with this post but welcome to Solent Area and I will send you some welcome pack info via email very soon, which should help you.

On your MX5 corrosion, John Wheeler is right, locally here in Curdridge, there is Dr MX5 and in Waltham Chase, Andrew Oulton of SolentMX5. Both very capable guys in reasonable striking distance of your home and will do a good job.
Regards
Mal

For info, I have just emailed the details I promised you to your email address.
