Anyone used ARUN in Pulborough

[TBW]

They are pretty local to me and claim to look after many Astons alongside their main bread and butter, Jaguars. Has anyone any experience of them? Good or bad.
thanks

I've not used them - however, when I was looking for a Vantage I did visit them to see a couple that they had for sale (it was about 2-3 months ago).

Let's just say - I hope their servicing is better than the quality of their stock / sale preparation.

Dave, did you used to have a white 964 about 8 years ago?

I'm famous!

Yep - sold it about 4 years ago to a colleague (I'd had a 996 turbo for a year at that point, and the 964 wasn't really being used anymore).

Anyway - back on topic! Anyone used Arun?

I concur with Davek.

Drove 2.5 hrs to view a green DB7 Volante about 18mths ago which looked & sounded great on line.

The chap I spoke to was off that day - despite me arranging to meet, the substitute salesman knew nothing about the car but did let me look at the history which showed constant air con probs.

I sat in the car & fired it up but it was so poorly prepared and the air con didn't seem to be working, that "I made my excuses and left". Didn't bother to drive it and it was squeezed in with all the other stock - again despite me giving them plenty notice !

If you live that way, great - lovely part of the world. Luckily we found The Old Railway Station at Petworth - which made the journey worthwhile . And the weather was good.

Had a bunch of XJSs, an ex-Tom Conti (the thespian) SL Merc and a 30's Austin or similar from Graham Carr (Chatty Man).

So ok for mooching around the cars but I certainly wouldn't let them anywhere near my DB9, from what I saw.
