Dinitrol
Anyone have a recommendation for anyone in Oxfordshire area to do this ?

Got a new 90 HT coming in September & this is one of the first jobs that needs doing & looking to see if anyone had any experience of anyone local who can do this as not sure swmbo will let me do it on our shared drive ! & might struggle to do it in the garage.

Killer is a bit far away & I'm worried if it goes to him I think I will end up getting him to do lots of other things on my long list whilst there, dynamat, svx side steps, steering wheel etc & I'll soon have spent a small fortune !! 2020 P300 HSE

I think Chris, aka Killer90 does it. He is a perfectionist and Jeremy uses him for his which must be a good advert!

He is local to where you are collecting the new one from too. 1951 80" S1 2.0

Yes, he is bit like that...I am off there soon and I intend on leaving my wallet at home. Rolling with laughter The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

iPints.....

Is Hoboman 4X4 still in Faringdon? When I was stationed at Brize Norton a few years ago now I supplied my own Waxoyl and he did the work on my Discovery. Damn fine job he did too at a very reasonable price. Used to use him for other Land Rover related bits 'n' bobs too! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Not that I am aware of. I use MiD Engineering in Wantage most of the time, not sure if they underseal. I have asked the question and currently awaiting an answer of if they can and approx cost. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

Chris,

Perhaps you had better give me a price to Dinitrol a brand new 90 HT - arriving end Sept at HGG

Looks like I might as well get delivered straight to you Thumbs Up

Off Topic Simon we perhaps need to see if we can bulk buy the upgrades as we appear to be going a similar route Laughing 2020 P300 HSE

I spoke to FrogsIsland on Milton Park near Didcot about it a few years ago, can't remember prices or anything but maybe worth a phone call. Also there's MID Engineering near wantage, but never spoke to them about it.

No connection to either company except I've spent and no doubt will continue to spend money at both places!! Strong people are harder to kill and generally more useful!

Hi Thor,

I was really trying to find somewhere where someone had had it done Thumbs Up yes I know them & James French in Standlake who I have used before but not for this.

Might see if Chris aka (Killer90) can do it direct from the dealers.

Thanks Thor maybe see you on Oxford meet - just waiting for confirmation of where I'm working before I say yes I can meet Thumbs Up 2020 P300 HSE

I have spoken to Mark at MID Engineering and he said he is happy to do it but this isn't his bread and butter and you'd be better off going to some like Before and After. Basically he can do it but there are better people out there who can probably do a better job as this is what they do everyday.

He did say anything else he is happy to do as well.

For my money CSK would be the place to go. The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

PJB, i can highly recommend MID Engineering for service items........ The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.
