They still trade, when i saw him he was telling me he has richard branson as his customer....
Billy ball.......

Cant see branson going to an estate to get his car serviced.....

I can, however, see him sending his car to an estate to be serviced...

They did the last work on my 4200 before I bought it. Seemed fine at the time. And I've had 6 months of trouble(ish) free motoring.

I knew about the leaky matrix. The self levelers are not exatly a big deal, and there's no evidence that they replaced the pads.

I'm not sure I'd go there again, however.

They were good at what they did and knowledable from what I can gather....Just ended up doing some naughty stuff in the end....Didn't mean they didn't know there Ferrari/Maserati.......

I hate it when people start spouting complete bs, mainly because they must think I'm pretty stupid to believe that rubbish.


It does not matter if he was Maserati's chief engineer, based on the BBC programme he does not appear to be a trustworthy person.

There's another Supercar business in the North West that is more or less the same. If you don't know they are sharks there is no reason not to go. It has a shiny showroom and lots of sale or return supercars but all is not what it seems apparently.

That reminds me, I saw a very striking purple Diablo for sale. Does that ring any bells, Benny?

I have seen a purple Diablo out and about. If its in the showroom the garage owner was probably using it as his runabout. I've been on a couple SCD runs where he has pitched up in what I was told were customers cars and thrashed the t!ts off them.

What an unscrupolous approach (if, caveat, caveat, etc). The Diablo used to belong to Jay Kay if it's the same one I aw advertised. Purple velour interior or some such thing.

Sounds like a case of caveat emptor when buying from certain less well-regarded dealers. Caveat venditor as well, for that matter, if you're getting them to sell it on your behalf.
