So after much searching on here and via Google, I’m still not able to find anywhere that can do this that’s not on or near the south coast of England - surely there are some others!
I’m based near Glasgow so central Scotland is my prefered option, but I work in and around Birmingham Mon-Frid so would be prepared to drive down there (as opposed to my usual train) and get it done, obviously not my prefered option but…!
Communication, or rather the lack of it from Goodwood sports cars near Berwick is so offputting I’m highly unlikely to continue chasing up for a response and they’re off of my radar.
So does anyone have any suggestions?
I even asked a Mazda dealer in Glasgow and their response was “you need to bring it in so we can assess it” - no I want a price for replacing a soft top, you don’t need to assess it, so they can go spin as well!
I do not know of any reviews, recommendations or anybody who has used The Hood Guys. 33a, High Street, Kings Heath, Birmingham. B14 7BB
Tel No 0121 444 2288. Someone on the forum may have experience of them. Let us know how you get on.
Actually went there to check it out earlier in the year, wrecked cars in the bay and no sign of anyone, the place was all shuttered up as well.
Even if it as open the state of the place around where the shop is meant to be I’d have real reservation about leaving my car with them, but fairly sure they’re not in operation anyway.
Emailed him as he has some in stock, though it looks like the workshop is in Hampshire! Though hopefully it could be done in Castle Douglas on a weekend - would also give me an excuse to visit a mate in Kirk Cowan not far away!
