Dreadnought servicing
Discussion
friendly people, iv never had a service yet so cant really advise, but when my car was in with overheating problems and a blown alternator fuse, they failed to notice a badly worn ball joint, badly worn steering rack and when i asked for my door catch to be adjusted to stop the sensor flashing up "door open" i now find my door rubs on the body of the car and has worn off some of the paint.
i asked them to give the car a quick check over to see if there were any other problems but they missed it, wallace performance in aberdeen identified these other problems a couple of weeks later so had them do the work.

I have used them for the last 4 years for my tvr but have not used them this year.
The last two jobs I got them to do my car came back with oily hand prints on my cream interior and the car covered in bird shit! When you pay just under a grand for servicing, I expect a clean car on pickup.

Hey I'm not out to piss on dreadnought here just giving you my experiences.
Have had an oily hand print twice and I know I should have complained at the time but the first time I didn't notice it till I got home(was on a panel just behind the seat).
The second occasion, my car wasn't washed as it came out after the service as it had went in, with some shit on it which got my back up then when I jumped in there was a print on my dash! Was that pissed I just drove off.
But this is the only things I have to complain about in 4 years of dealing with the folks at dreadnought, the work they have done has been spot-on. But the basics are the most important.

I used Dreadnought last year for the Stangs first service. And even dropped me off in the town so I could spend the pennies lol. I will be using them again (service is due now) and would rather travel the distance than let a 18 yts kid at the local Ford Dealeship get his mits on my car lol.
