Didn't Jonathan Neal (often at track days in a Caterham) buy a LHD 355 last year? - i think he has a place where he gets it fixed,a small garage with an ex-Ferrari mechanic i think.

I don't he if he hangs out on Scottish Elises or not - i don't think i have his e-mail address however.

(i think he works for Highland Spring).

Someone else on here should know him too.
