Clatter Bang Clunk

Hi,

 

I'm new to this forum (and new to owning a Z - two weeks so far and I've had plenty of teething problems). I've found lots of helpful advice on here, but now things have gone pear shaped.

 

Cruising back up the M6 (at only 85ish), a big end went. Ouch. So now it's either new shells on the crank or a recon engine. The question is - are there any recommended garages in the Warwickshire area (preferably Leamington Spa) that I can contact. There is a main dealer but there not going to be my first point of call for this.

 

I've just spent an arm and a leg having a full service, timing belt change, new radiator hose etc. 200 miles done so far. Looks like I bought a bit of a Lemon, but I'll persist.

 

Thanks.

    It seems true that the only person that can catch you in a zed is your bank manager!
