We have recently acquired a guide to all Triumph dealerships and service centres, although it isn't dated. It's surprising to find that there were so many of them all over the country!

I would be interested in anything you could dig up about Uxbridge service station, Cowley Mill Rd, Uxbridge, which was an Austin and Triumph dealership when I did my apprenticeship in 1970-73.

Also of R B Massey of Beverly Yorkshire, who supplied my Toledo new. I have the original invoice for that car with letterhead etc and somewhere a pic of the rear window sticker (which has now almost disintegrated) I believe they also had a branch in York which is where the heritage cert says the car was dispatched to from the factory.

Cheers, Steve

I have a couple of articles about Robert B Massey (York) Ltd that appeared in the Standard Triumph Review, but nothing about Uxbridge service station.

I would like to see copies your R B Massey of Beverly Yorkshire material.

The one I have is identical to the one you have on your page from 1974.

Carledo - I can't find any mention of the place in Uxbridge, but the one in Beverley is listed.

Took these pics of my 1500HL and paperwork, which was originally supplied by Mantles of Biggleswade. They appear to be Ford dealers now and advertise themselves as being 95 years old.

That's very interesting, as when I worked there, it was at a different address in Cowley Mill Rd, though the phone number is strangely familiar! Not been through there recently but it could easily have been torn down and relocated by now and the site was a pretty prime one, virtually the last building in Uxbridge if leaving on the Iver Heath/Slough road. I know they got out of BL not long after I left and went to Vauxhall and later Peugeot/Citroen.
