Servicing/repairs recommended places

[S1mon.]

What do people recommend as a good place to get work done on my cerb 4.5 ?
Prefer local(ish) to Swindon Wilts.
At the moment i have a vibration when at speed, only noticed this at LeMans, seem to have some oil dripping on the exhaust from around the diff. don't know if this is connected at all.
Only had the car a week so still getting used to things.
Ant advise or pointers greatly appreciated

See, you shouldv'e bought mine Simon :-)
I think the closest local'ish place is Hendry's in Malmesbury, although theyre not that highly regarded apparently.
I take mine to Euphoria (High Wycombe) and leave it there for the week. I'll be taking my new one there soon, so maybe we can help each other out, I'll take and collect you, and you take and collect me when I take mine if your interested.

APM in Liphook Hampshire ( www.apmautomotive.co.uk/index.htm ), pain to get to, but worth it. I used to take my 3000M to Adrian Venn in Coventry from Reading, its worth travelling for good service for these cars.

First thing to check with vibration at speed is wheel balancing. Having mine rebalanced totally cured the problem.
My front seal on the diff also failed causing oil to drip onto the exhausts but this is also an easy fix.
Just be carefull where you choose to get the work done.

Regards

Thought about wheel balance, but it don't feel like that sort of vibration. Will get them done though if only to deffinatly rule this out.
Diff leak looks like it's from around where the prop fits, or a plate between the prop & diff???
Would worn diff bushes cause this vibration?

Maybe i should have, but this one was a bargain IMO, and a 4.5 and yellow.
Have passed your number on to a work collegue as he's keeps drooling over mine and now has it in his head he want one.

Silverstone Performance at Bicester or Silverstone is an easy run up from Swindon (half hour?). Matt likes Cerberas.

Glad you got one you liked Simon, I got to sell mine because I want to get my new one out on the road, so its up for offers now !!
Seemed like you enjoyed the trip to Le Mans, I've had my cerb for a year now and still havent gone abroad in it, you beat me to it.
By the way, I drove a mates modded Evo last week, very f*****g quick, but souless, was like sitting in an ordinary Jap 4 door family car. Hope you get your car sorted soon.
