Does anyone know of any Minor garages/specialists in Cornwall?

My 20 year old son is taking my Minor on holiday there (gulp!) next month and it would be nice to have a back-up in case of any problems he can't fix himself

Suggest you contact the Cornish MM Club http://www.cornwallmorrisminorclub.co.uk/ They will have a list of useful contacts.

Make sure he's covered by your insurance 'roadside and recovery' - and that's not just confined to when YOU are driving it.

I can second West Country Classics, although they are in Rosudgeon. I've looked in there a few times and they seem a proper helpful old fashioned garage.

Thanks for these suggestions. From their website, the West Country Classics outfit just looks like a dealer, but if they also do servicing etc it looks like they'll be a good bet

I took Dodo to Cornwall the other week and had a problem with the distributor cap on the way down. As luck would have it the local garage Tintagel Motors 1/2 mile from the cottage we were renting was able to get me a replacement next day :D .
