It's that time of year I dread - I need to get the Diablo MOT'd. Not that it will fail on anything but I would prefer to use someone who is careful with the car.

Can anyone recommend someone in reasonable distance of Reading? Feel free to PM me if you prefer

thanks

Craig

I use a place close to me (Chelmsford).
He lets you sit in the car and drive it on the ramp... he also has a very sympathetic view towards those nasty things called catalytic convertors!!

Hi Craig,
Just had the Countach done (passed) Maidenhead location.
Great team of guys there, but only JB does the MOT. You drive onto the ramp and they do the rest.
Contact me if you want details.

If don't mind me asking whats the name of the place you use ianqv, good friend of mine works as mechanic in chelmsford and has mentioned a guy who comes in to get his Countach looked at on accasion, wondered if might be you?
