We have lots of customers from North Wales that travel down. Not sure too many of them actually appear on here. One member comes down on a Saturday from some place with loads of L's and c's and y's in the spelling [ but that could be anywhere in Wales in fairness ]

He takes about an hour and 25 down the mid Wales route in through Shrewsbury and the M54 to get here.

Look up CV33 9GX [ NOT 9PL ] on Satnav for a location. Or the map on our website

Fitting lLockwood dial faces is a very good way to F**k up a perfectly good set of gauges. It is nearly impossible to change the faces and have a working accurate dial afterwards.

We only ever tried once and after we were £200.00 out of pocket supplying a set of dials to replace the ruined ones, we said never again.

Don't do it.
