4.3 TVR Power speed 6

[TVR_owner]

In a world where almostv any dealer can service your new car now and it retains its warranty how can Power insist ons omething like this??

Just curious, I can see why Power would insist they see the engine every 6000 miles/year as regular close inspection can prevent premature destruction, but....still curious.

Power would like the car serviced at their place to keep the warranty in tact.

I think it's fair enough especially if they are putting a 5 year warranty on it and there name to it.

I also think its fair, just wasnt sure how legal it was.

No idea, it's a good point but i would rather take it there anyway.

Sidewayz do you have to have your engine serviced at Power from now on to take advantage of the warranty as per there latest news release?

Now see what you started

I think its fair for Dom to service the engine and will be taking it there so he can keep an eye on it.As for legalities I have no idea but if my company was taking on the risk element I would want to take on the responsibility of looking after it.

Everything else will be done by Trimar who are an excellent team who have given me years of great service.

Probably a really stupid way to do it but true to form...

Sounds reasonable enough to me?

Excellent news! Have a great time driving her back and ask Dom about his running in reccomendations as they are better than you might imagine.

Sidewayz, I was not trying to open a can of worms, I was just wondering what the score was. I also use Trimar for my servicing and when my engine goes pop again, I'm not sure if I could be bothered to get my car to Power for future servicing if they got the business at rebuild time.

[Whitey]

More to the point, get the thing run in and onto Surrey Rolling Roads rollers to get a bhp reading we can all compare to!!

[sidewayz]

Hi Whitey.No worries,I was joking hence the .I am interested in finding out the final power as well. I'll be putting the miles on over the next couple of weeks.

Come on Dom,
It didnt really take so many edits to say that, or did you keep changing your mind?

[KillerJim]

Thats good news.. I`m in N.Ireland and I wouldn`t want the trip over every year to get things serviced - the local servicer comes highly recommended by everyone I`ve know (top bloke too!)

I always thought it was spelt with a "y" i.e. lysdexic !

[thainy77]

Well i've just got back from picking my car up and all i can do is echo what sidewayz has already said.

It feels like it wants to play all the way through the revs and it hasn't been run in yet! i can't wait too see what it's like when it is.

Just a big thanks to Dom and his team and and especially for the quick turn around!

Cheers.

[sidewayz]

Congratulations Thainy!.
