Any advise for the best dealers for warranty work on my VXR8. Had the car from Lookers Birmingham not happy with their service.I live in the Wolverhampton area don't mind travelling as long as it's not to far afield.

Hiya Kawwavey we are in Cannock and had the same experience with Lookers. We now use Slaters Colwyn bay. They are about an hour and 30 mins from you through Telford, that way. If you book a courtesy car have a ride into Llandudno for lunch(beautiful place and DevilyellowCV8's stomping ground). Anyway Slaters are absolutely brilliant. We were told by Lookers that warped brakes weren't covered on warranty so we called Slaters. No probs at all. Booked it in job done. Just ask for the service manager. If you need any other information just ask.
Slaters 01492 523100
Hope it helps

Looks as though Lookers had used up their warranty budget, maybe?

Is there such a thing as warranty budget?
Surely VX can't expect owners to trawl through the network to find a dealer with some "spare" budget when a warranty claim is required.
Perhaps budget is retained for vehicles actually supplied by the particular dealer.
As Mel states Slaters are excellent for warranty work.
