I'm having my car mapped and want to get the car rolling roaded on the way to the mapper and the way back. Independent test etc at the same rolling road.

Anyone have any reccomendations? Ideally around the M4 corridor as I'm travelling from Portishead to Swindon with a 10am start at the mappers.

Slightly out of your way but Interpro in Thornbury might work. Good bunch of guys, I’ve used them before

Thanks for the above, I've used Circuit Motors before and happy with them. £180 for 3 power runs seems excessive, used to be £30 a run!

No personal experience of these people so not a recommendation per se but £45 plus vat per power run?


http://mtechautomotive.co.uk/rolling-road/

In Westbury Wilts 27 miles from Bristol, 35 from Swindon

Quote "We use the very latest Dyno Dynamics 2WD Digital Rolling Road housed in a bespoke dyno-cell which offers excellent extraction, airflow and cooling. We happy to map an array of engine management systems, as well as having our own in-house carb guru – Webers, Dellortos or even Bike Carbs are no problem for us.

We have had the likes of BBC’s Top Gear team on the rolling road, through to the Nissan ZEOD Le Man Car, so you can be sure you are in safe, and well respected hands….

Power Runs are just £45+VAT and mapping starts at £80+VAT/ph.

I used them once about 5 years ago as it is only approx 5 miles from me, and unless things have changed there dramatically....never again!

Thanks Alfa, mine is a 4WD so no good. Think I'll be using Circuit Motors, always had a good experience in the past.

Thanks for all the advice everyone, seems like no new players in the game really.
