Big thank you from me and Lindsay.
He managed to fix Lindsays Bridal car the week leading up to the wedding in short notice after the owner had some brake issues.
Just wanted to say thank you and it looks like his service and customer service hasn't changed.
Wishing you all the luck with the new venture.

I'm no big fan of modern Astons, but that old and new photo looks amazing.
Congrats btw!

What is Craig's new venture? Can find the company name but no website.
Or is it still a secret
Do I need to buy an Aston?

He has started his own garage doing service (has been running for a month or so) and i would think some sales as well. He still has the same mobile number and hopes to have a landline, website, payment machine up and running very soon.
If anyone needs his number PM me.
cheers

Cant make out the badge on the old Aston but looks like a DB6 to me. Despite the plate, don't think James Bond ever drove one of those!
Anyway, semantics. Best of luck Craig! Will text you.
Cheers.

Me neither. I'm more of a substance over style kind of guy.
Mind you, now that you can buy these looks from a Ford showroom I'm not even sure that the style justification applies any more.

If he continues in the same manner as he did in his previous job it will be a roaring success.

Craig currently has my Sierra Cosworth and I am happy to confirm the service is just as good as it used to be ....... If not better
I know where the Exige will be going when it is out of warranty.

It does seem all very clandestine and secretive which is a bit odd.

I assumed he was still setting up
Good luck with the new business Craig
I'm guessing that MMC will retain quite a lot of new car customers as Lotus had/ has 3 years free servicing on new cars.
