Servicing and repair in Rutland/Melton area?

  1. My model of MX-5 is: 2012 Kuro
  2. I’m based near: Rutland / Melton
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: Servicing

Hi, picked up a 2012 Kuro last week and now looking for recommendations for a local mx5 specialist to use for general servicing and repair, possibly a bit of track prep.

Thanks

Thrushington garage is in your neck of the woods I believe, MX-5’s a speciality.
Never used them myself but other members have.:+1:

Mike Comber at Thrussington Garage runs a MX5 Race team (with lots of wins), with Mk1 and Mk3 cars. He’s fairly heavily booked, so pays to be flexible, and don’t assume he will always have a loaner. You can also arrange MOTs through him, an he now has the gas analyzers, which helps with diagnosing emissions issues. Prices are ok (I suppose competitive); don’t expect rock bottom prices. This is a developed business with 3-4 mechanics on the books.

I’ve used him now I suppose for at least 8 years for MX5s, but also the Jag (general servicing, auto gearbox service, suspension and braking repairs), so good for other makes, including, I see, old classics.

Thanks everyone. I will definitely give Thrussington a call then. It’s only about 15in from work so perfect.

Cheers

Despite being called Thrussington Garage, its actually in East Goscote.

Booked in for next week. Thanks all :+1:

Been down and seen the chaps at Thrussington. Polite and helpful. Said the car seems a good buy except for tired suspension. Sort of expected this as it has done 100k as a daily.

I am now shopping for Coilovers and possibly bushes.

Based on current experience would certainly recommend giving them a go.
