Need a mechanic in the Midlands, who to go to?

Hi Folks,
Long time member, but only recently bought an MX-5 (eunos actually '91) as a bit of a project, got it through the NCT, but its engine running a bit rough. There is a shudder at idle where the engine visibly shakes, and a splutter at the exhaust and it gets worse as the engine warms up. I thought it was a simple misfire and changed the plugs and leads. This did improve things but didn't fix the issue.
So anyway I'm looking for a decent mechanic in the midlands (I'm based around Athlone/Tullamore - but am very willing to travel for someone good) so I don't throw money at lots of bits which may/may not fix it. Any recommendations?
Cheers
Pat
