Hi.

I was wondering if there are any recommendations as to servicing in the midlands for Astons. Just wondered where to go? Where to possibly avoid? Any input would be great. Thanks. Neil

I assume you know the dealer network so will only mention Bamford Rose who look after mine. There are of course other independents. Have a read of their sticky at the top of the page. You only need to read the first couple of pages to understand the depth of their knowledge

If you want a main dealer I have used Stratstone in Hagley http://is.gd/iIpoQo for warranty work and they seem fine. To date I have used Bamford Rose for servicing, no complaints, cheaper than Stratstone, fitted a switch for the exhaust FOC and aggressively seek out warranty issues which I am not so sure a main dealer would.

I used McGurks CV35 OJA. Will be using them for my next service as well.

WS happily relieved me of £400 for the exhaust bypass switch. Congratulations on your excellent deal.
