Best repair shop in Devon/Cornwall ?
So, my drivers side door lock is acting up and I need to get a new lock mechanism or motor fitted.
Normally I'd go to Team Valley LR but I'm away on holiday next week and they can't fit me in before. So, which is the best place to go to from the palce we're staying - Lydford ?
AFAICS there are dealers in Barnstaple, Exeter, Plymouth all equidistant from Lydford. Which one do people recommend ? Any others that I've missed ?

I had a good experience (transmission flush) with Moores St Wenn near Nequay.
And there is a great cafe on the estate for a massive fry up.Disco 3: Lotus Elise S1: Ferguson T20: Audi A2

As for main dealers, there's Taunton Landrover which might be a mite closer than Plymouth.Morris Dancers: Drinkers with A Dance Problem

^ think you need a new map - Lyford to Plymouth is about 25miles and Lydford to Taunton is about 65 miles..... .
