Hi all

So now I have finally got my big Ford V8, any recommendations for specialist garages in London. I'm in SW London. Just preempting if anything goes wrong or needs repairing.

Thanks.

2000 Mercury Grand Marquis GS.

given it's the same engine as a Mustang (I think I'm right in saying?) I suspect a lot of the Mustang specialists may well be able to help?

You don't need a 'specialist' to service a Ford modular V8. You need regular oil/filter changes, the occasional air cleaner and cabin pollen filter and 8 spark plugs every 50k miles or so.

Rather like asking for advice to source a Ford Escort specialist.

I use a specialist to service my BMW as they know what they are doing and are cheaper than the dealer.

Even if it's just an oil change, I'd rather not leave it in the hands of the local Ford dealership.

They told me that the new Mustang was big, as big as a Focus biggrin
