Well, I've been dealing with British Automotive Service in Palo Alto for 
about 3 years with my MGB, recently TR6 (just acquired!).  They've kept 
the B running well in that time, they do what you ask and are honest.  I 
have had some problems with run-on that did not get fixed the first time 
I brought it in, but they worked on it again for free.  They are not 
cheap ($65/hour for labor), but the work they do is not bad.

So, in summary, a little expensive, resonably reliable, and honest.

Best of luck!

Cheers,                |                \    /\
