Default Tropical Silver Shadow

I am shortly to acquire an immaculate 35000km 1970 Silver Shadow I which
has spent its entire life to date in Singapore: it is being shipped to
the UK in the next few weeks.

Can anyone recommend UK independent specialists for service and
maintenance needs? I live in the English Midlands. Any suggestions
gratefully received...

Barry

Let's hope it has been serviced regularly.
Neglected hydraulics can get *very* expensive.
Other neglected parts can get expensive.

The best (not the cheapest) specialist is P&A Wood.
http://www.pa-wood.co.uk
Invest a little to let them check the car and you will receive
a list a what need to done.

Afterwards you can make priorities where to begin.

The best thing you can do, is to join the RREC.
http://www.rrec.co.uk/

A lot of specialist advertise in the RREC-bulletin.
Talk to fellow members, which specialist they can
recommend in your area.

Greetings,
Uli

Thanks Uli. I'm told it has been very well cared for and has been
regularly serviced.
But I'm crossing everything!
