Could anybody suggest a half decent garage that I can trust for work on my 8 somewhere in the south west? Ideally Bristol or south of it. I seem to remember that there was a place in Cullompton called Franky's Speed Shop but a google search suggests that may have closed, anybody know if they are still going?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Have you looked at Murdochs Rotary Specialist on Facebook? He’s a mobile mechanic that travels all over the UK, can’t fault him whatsoever

Re: Rx8 servicing / work in the south west
DanBass did a bit of work on mine, very reasonable and knowledgeable, based in Newport but not sure he is still doing this.
Tim at RX Motors in Salisbury is a great shout. Very well regarded but a little bit of a drive, or closest to Bristol is Rotary Motion near Chippenham. They recently rebuilt my engine. First go round wasn't so good, but they did fix it and it's going strong now, so I can't complain about their integrity.

Thanks for the rec. I'm heading there tomorrow for their 60 point health check. Hoping for good compression test and a clean bill of health before I get the new brake discs and pads fitted for the MOT next week
