Good Vx Service Posts Add Them Here Please...

Just had my service done on Friday at Courtenay Sport in North Walsham and the whole experience was great. I had good chat with the technician as he was inspecting the car and was very knowledgeable and advised what to upgrade.

The showroom with sofa, coffee etc, magazines and TV means you wont get bored waiting either!

Highly recommended.

Forgot to post this a while back, but would recommend Back on Track in Guildford. They fitted the Larini to my car and just found them great,  will be taking it there come service time.

Any recommendations for a VX specialist that does MOTs in the Colchester/Ipswich area or thereabouts?

[font="calibri;"]Sorry Artic I have to disagree with your review.  I had my VXT serviced at PSR last year before it went into the garage for winter.  I decided to get the engine mounts changed and have the service done at PSR as I had read some good reviews and travelled from North Cambridgeshire.  When I arrived they hadn’t ordered the parts, but said they would be delivered and could be done during the service, so I went for a walk round town.  I then got a call to say they had arrived and did I have time for them to be fitted, which I did.  Shortly after I got anther call, they had mistakenly only ordered one engine mount, which they had fitted and needed to order a second one, did I have time to wait?  If not, they would only charge me half the labour, presumably for only doing half the job!  I couldn’t wait as I needed to get back to work, the confusion was caused as the poly engine mounts come in 2 parts, I know this and I am not a supposed specialist.  Anyway these things do happen, so as the car is now back on the road I have been calling PSR to try and get the other engine mount done, I have left numerous messages and sent 3 emails, no one has bothered to reply.  [/font]

[font="calibri;"]I am aware they are moving, but they could at least make an effort to book me in for when they are up and running, as I will have to take more time off work to sort out their mistake! [/font]

[font="calibri;"] [font="calibri;"]I think I have finally had enough and will take my car somewhere they answer the phone/emails[/font][/font], can anyone recommend a good garage in the Cambridgeshire area, or as close by as possible?

[font="calibri;"]Cheers[/font]

Took my VX to Matt last week for Quantums, toe-links and a geo.

Great service, he really knows his stuff - wouldn't hesitate to go back to him in the future 

Which Quantum's did you put on UltraCC ?  How do you find them ?

Matt Bentley is a great guy isn't he.  His advice is first rate as is the work he does.

I went for the non-adjustable Quantum's, I think they were called Zero's but I think they've changed their naming structure.

I've only been out a couple of times since having them fitted, first impressions are very good. Not as harsh as I expected and the car feels much more direct - that could be the geo setup he did though.

For anybody wanting to get their VX MOT'd in the Chippenham/Malmesbury/Cirencester area... I recommend Crudwell Garage, Crudwell.  Used by Neil Garner Motorsport, which is who referred me.  MOT tester is a good guy and sees VXs and Elises fairly regularly.  They have an inspection window and I inspect... They treat her well... Next time I will teach him how to shut the engine cover properly though

Hi-Q in Dudley. Run by car nutters, and they worked out how to do anything required to mot and service my VX for an amazing price. Now JS racing has closed this seems to be a good place for regular maintenenance and MOTs.
