MGF Breakers in Cornwall

Post by swampygaz » Tue Jul 09, 2013 6:54 pm

Hi,

I am new to the forum. I live in St Austell and own a 1997 1.8 VVC. I am looking to replace a NS BRG HAM door that someone kindly dented for me in a car park. Is anyone aware of any breakers in Cornwall that stock Rover/Mgf parts that nay have a replacement?

Thanks in advance.

Not quite Cornwall but Martin Smith in Somerset is a good friend of the Register and specialises in breaking F/TFs.

He can be found via http://www.usedmgtfspares.co.uk/

Firstly, welcome to the Register - good to see a new member for the Devon & Cornwall Region :thumbsu:

As Keith has mentioned your best bet is Martin Smith, I've used him several times - really helpful guy, failing that I'd try EBay.

Hi and welcome to the forum. As Pete has said, it's good to hear of a new member in the far South West,

I'm just adding another endorsement for Martin Smith. Top bloke and very honest to deal with.

Regards

    Hi Keith, Pete and Brian,

    Thanks for your responses. I have been checking on eBay and haven't cone up with anything suitable just yet.
    According to his ebay site Martin Smith doesn't appear to have anything available at the moment but I'll give them a ring/email just in case, and continue to keep an eye on eBay.

    Thank's again

    Martin will have lots of stock ~ his stock changes so quickly his website can't keep up! Welcome to the F Register Forum.
