Car back with new clutch and serviced
Discussion
Got the car back after being away for 5 weeks while waiting for a clutch and for me to get back off my hols. It was great to see it turn up on the back of a trailer looking all shiney. I spent half my holiday just wanting to get home and get my car back.
What a difference the car is though, the clutch feels a lot more positive. The difference now the engine has been set up properly is huge all the kangarooing at low speed has gone and the acceleration is even more amazing than before. I also had the Steve Heath drop links fitted and these have really made a positive improvement on the handling the car corners a lot flatter now and feels a lot more planted on the road. I think I just need to turn the Nitrons down a notch or 2 and it will make it perfect.
The car has been down to Automedon for all its work and the quality of work and attention to detail from Dave has been exceptional. Really pleased with all of it, he even repainted my brake callipers as part of the service as well as lots of other little bits and pieces I keep noticing and then phoned after my drive home to see that I had got back ok and the car was behaving itself. Top bloke and would heartily recommend him, the price was very reasonable as well, especially as he managed to find a supply of early clutches and saved me having to upgrade to the later style one.
The only complaint is that he sent me 2 bags of Automedon blackpool rock up and I've eat most of it in 2 days and I feel a bit sick, on the whole I cannot really hold that against him.
Anyway I'm away home the long way round to enjoy the car again.
