If the sun is shining I may have to put on 2 pairs of sunglasses if you guys all turn up for the V6 showing!!

Brandon can maybe organise the "Tango" man to jump out give you all a slap in the face with an V6 Exige brochure then run away :D

I think so, but then it was dark this morning, as mine was parked next to it and the colour looked similar I just assumed it was Chrome and not Burnt (not that my oragne is either but I think it is closer to chrome) - was so busy looking at the car that I didn't think to see what the number plate was.

Big thanks again from me, absolutely outstanding job as usual.

The Evora has been in and out of Murrays more than my driveway recently, but its always sorted once picked up. It looked immaculate today aswell!

With all the bother I've had with the little warranty jobs, I've been telling myself I'll never buy another Lotus again, but Craig and the team are putting up a good fight, I've never experienced service anywhere like it before.

Only negative about visiting MMC? Too many cars sitting about tempting me! The Esprit they have in just now is amazing, but I couldn't get the MY12 Evora S out my head on the drive back up the road.. I'll need to go in blindfolded next time!

Thanks again.

We put our Renaul Clio RS into Murray's and they did an awesome job.

Cackle noise on change up that Evans Halshaw could not diagnose and said was the rev limiter (what a bunch of muppets)- Sorted by Murrays
Braking performance that Evans Halshaw said was normal - diagnosed and sorted by Murrays
Service - excellent job by Murrays

Top job again by the guys and thanks again to Craig.

So its just not Loti that get the good treatment from Murrays, would definitely recommend them for non Lotus vehicles :thumbsup

George

Ps Now that the guys have sorted the brakes I may lose some kudo's points, was able to get the front pads smokin 8)

Another thumbs up Murray.

Had the car in for it's 1st MOT and service on Monday and they noticed the baffles were starting to go in my Stage 3, only 10mths old so replaced under warranty yesterday. Very kindly fitted my decat pipe at the same time for me, so maybe the stage 3 will last 5mths this time !

Very tempted by the Persian Blue Evora there.

Yes, I saved ~ 10% by emailing Craig for a SE price compared to what I was quoted on the phone.

MOT is expensive when you consider that some fast fit centres will do it for £25, for what should legally be the same thing but I think it's worth an extra £20-25 for the convienience of getting it done together and having an assessor who knows the cars.

Dropped the car in this morning with the dash display not working – all sorted a couple of hours later and the car was cleaned up as well. Great service as always. :thumbsup

Many thanks to Craig and the guys at MMC.

Picked the car up yesterday after a service and getting the heating/aircon sorted. I have been playing host to a family of rodents over the winter and they found loads of nice nesting spaces and material in the heater :evil:

I managed to fight off the Evora S and decided to keep the SC a bit longer and the way it was going last night I think I made the right choice.

So despite the biggest bill I can remember I think it was money well spent. (New AP brakes didn't help the cost, they are on promotion at the moment though and I did need new pads and discs :D )

Another thank you to MMC, picked my car back up from them this morning after it getting a tow by the AA from the house yesterday morning.

A worn bit of wiring to the fuel pump that had totally corroded away stoped the car from starting, 2 hours later it was all fixed, Craig even had my doggy window seal sorted too.

Thanks again :thumbsup :thumbsup
