You could try lvh engines and see if he will come out to you?

I've got my 1.6td booked in next week for setting the timing with him but not sure if he goes out to people.

Pain in the a*** trying to find a garage to work on timing in the North East I tried a few places and they all said no and couldn't recommend any other places!

On a petrol I'd suggest giving it a go - £25 for a timing light and you're away. Its only a case of lining up up some marks whilst twiddling the distributor. 

Happy to write more detailed advice if you fancy a go?
