Good luck in your new venture mate :thumbsup

Do you know enough about VX's to service those? I'm really not sure how similar they are in terms of what gets done at a service (obviously different engines) but I'd be more than happy to take the car to a Lotus specialist if they knew what they were doing.

Congratulations on the new venture.

My Exige was due a service later on this year (still under warranty), so I reckon Ill get MMC to take care of all of my warranty woes, and then swing round by to get the car properly serviced.......

.....hope no-one objects to me using MMC in such a shameless fashion.... :shock:

Im sure Ill meet up with you at some point before the year is out.

All the best,

Tony

TENKFEET WROTE:
Slight thread hi-jack but I think you car will aslo be due timing belts as it 4 years old if not done already . New specialist will be able to advise you
cheers tenkfeet. I had assumed all A services were the same but will be checking this out before it goes anywhere - thanks

Good on you Ali - been a long time coming. Just the move I needed to make sure Mandy's car gets the attention it deserves.

A few times in the past when I've been discussing MMC with folk I've had people reply
"< variations of yes MMC are poor/expensive but have you met Ali? He's a top bloke and really knows his stuff."

I take it that's you :D

Good luck!

Pete

Edinburgh you say. Surely it would be better to get premises on the west coast? Near me? Be far more convenient you know (for me).
