Careful, or you might get moderated again :lol:

But yes, better weather coming = more buyers.

Calmed down enough to phone them today, and John realised I had been billed for 4 tyres worth of labour and not 2. SO I was credited £60 something quid. Still means I paid £30 a tyre inc VAT to have them fitted. Next time I'll have them sent to Glasgow free of charge and get them fitted by a local outfit for a couple of quid a corner.

Same goes for all other parts from now on, as the labour rate is shocking. Good tip on just getting the oil service done with them by the way, is that good enough to have the book stamped?

Lotus stamp means sh*t anyway.
It's not going to devalue your car not having it.

Not sure, will find out next week, though i'm having second thoughts now....

Are you still in Ayr Gaz? When I can't be arsed/need ramps (and AFAIK Shug) use Croft service station/johnnie johnston motorsoprt in Tarbolton - proper car enthusiasts. There's been an exige going there as well.

Yeah, still in Ayr, mate. Tarbolton isn't far away from me. I must check it out, cos I've had enough of making 150 mile trips to Edinburgh and getting raped. Once the warranty has run out, that'll hopefully be a thing of the past.
