I'm not too fussed if they're arse holes tbh as long as I get a decent price I'm in the car park at the moment so will see what they say...

That's a bit wrong not to even turn up! I've only ever dealt with the owner and his apprentice of pure lotus so can't really comment on the mechanics etc

I have had a couple of jobs (that i daren't tackle myself) done by Pure Lotus and haven't had a problem. I've always been welcomed by the owner and the head Mechanic (who is ex JCT brooklands). They have changed the cams belts on both my VXT and Clio 172, and never had a problem. There quotations were much more competative than JCT and renault (I never bothered with Vaux as i wouldn't have those muppets anywhere near my car)! Based on my personal expirence, I can't knock them.

Who are you using Andy to detail your Vx? Might have to have a nosy ;) as I'm half tempted next year to have mine done although I'm not sure it's worth it on a yellow Vx. I still need to take you out in the Vx to see what you think of stage 4 :)
