  1. I can't remember if I've already asked this.

    Do you know any good spannawankas who would do a decent job of replacing
    rear wheel bearings on an XJ40? Cheap is good, cash job is fine.

    I'm near Hitchin, by the way.

    My old spanner monkey in Markyate (near-ish Luton / Dunstable) is very
    good with anything you throw at him. He's worked on all sorts of shite
    old Wop stuff for me.

    Bonus is that he's only £27.50 / hour, incl. VAT.

    As the Bear says - Mark at Pool Bank Service Station in Nuneaton is the
    top cove for this sort of stuff - ?20 per hour and he's a bit forgetful
    about how long it takes - just did a full service on the TR7 - oils
    (engine/gbox and diff) balance carbs and shim the tappets etc - for 50
    quid all in.

    I thin he enjoys the challenge of using his grand-dad's imperial
    spanners again.
