Nope. I'm also in Southampton, never heard of them.

As I mentioned in your other thread - Have you got in contact with Tim Williams yet?

Coalville in Leicester.

When my last cars head gasket failed I got it towed up to him for £180. Spent the day there then drove it back again after. It failed twice after that and he repaired it FOC till he worked out what the problem was (tiny crack in the head that took it's time to show).

He's significantly cheaper than others quoted (even with costs of getting it up there etc) and as I said before, what he doesn't know about Volvo's isn't worth knowing.

Even if you don't use him, it's worth a chat with him to gauge what the damage is likely to be with yours.

Join up on T5D5 or finding him on Facebook is your best bet, if you're on there.
