Hi People
Has any of the members had anything done at A19 Tuning, I need my motor on a rolling road to get it perfect, an idea of the cost would be good too.

Many thanks
Ian

never used them, but if you need an excellent 'old school' garage then you won't do any better than macdonald racing in lanchester. oh and they have a rolling road too, although it's usually used to sort out morgans and lagondas etc...


Thanks folks
Have just come off the phone to A19 and I am very very dissapointed in the guys attitude, he basiclly said is the engine in the back? I said you told me you had worked on Esprits before which he bragged about at the start of the call. I said yes of course its in the back where else would it be!! he said nah I cant be bothered to do it as its awkward. Them were his exact words. Mini do you have that guys number in Lanchester.

Many Thanks
Ian

Yes thats the place, I have had a conversation with another garage this afternoon and apparantly someone else runs the place now, as I can understand a guy called Bill Paxton used to run it and has now gone on somewhere else, and its got a bit of a bad reputation now, these are HIS, not my comments by the way, but going off my phone today call I can see why.

Thanks mini,
I phoned the guy he seems to know his stuff, might use him if we can negotiate a price for the work, he quoted me £48 plus vat per hour which is very expensive, but if he knows his stuff could be worth it in the long run.
