Specialist in Leicester/Northampton Area?

[swilding]

Can anyone recommend a specialist resonably close that could service/repair my elise?

There is CD Bramall in the centre of Leicester.

They seem to know there stuff. I've not had my S1 long enough for a service from them but they were very good when they sold me mine. It had a fault and they repaired for free and delivered back with adequate compensation and the like. Customer service is good, no idea on competative price. But you get what you pay for in this world (most of the time).

There is a lotus dealer "Orchard Dealerships" just east of Billing Aquadrome never used them but they let me take a couple of cars out for a spin last year for a test drive. They probably service aswell.

Check this ever useful site:

CD Bramhall used to be Storm of Leicester.

Mixed reviews all around it seems.

Cheers,

Thanks for the info guys.

sirlaughalot where are you based?

I also brought my car from CD Bramall, who were helpful whilst buying but haven't been particularly great servicing etc. I'm due to pick the car up from then next week after having a hard top and janspeed fitted, but wanted to know who else I could possibly use.

B19GRR - Cheers for the link, it looks pretty useful

I've tried Orchard. Not impressed at all. Have rang them 5 times for extras on my S2 but so far no prices or come back.

Have rang CD Brammall in Leicester, they rang back within an hour with all the prices and will pick the car up this friday to do the work!!

Dont use

Just had Service there and they charge more on hourly rate than the Lotus factory in Norwich!!!

Not helpful at all and a bit arrogant!!!

Plus couldnt help me with burning smell!! (see earlier post)

They said and I quote "Dont think it will break down"

Brought my car from CD Brammal too!!

Should have got service from them!!!!!!!!!!!!!
