Had my Vantage serviced with DMS last year and they did a top job and like most on here would go back even though its a 2 hour trip but sadly DMS is no more.

Any recommendations within 2 hours of Cambridge.

Thanks

Quick Edit, list so far:
Bamford Rose in Shipston-on-Stour, Warwickshire
McGurk in Kineton, Warwickshire
Aston Engineering in Derby
Chiltern Aston, Hertfordshire
Pugsley and Lewis, Beckenham Kent

Had a service, MOT and subsequent freebie exhaust switch fitted by Bamford Rose so can recommend them thoroughly :-)

There is a good dealer within 2 minutes of Cambridge wink

I'm pretty sure that they do haggling when it comes to fixed price servicing. Give them a try.

Bamford Rose, no question.

McGurk have only just started servicing cars I believe? They're sales more than anything.

Really? There used to be a very good dealer in Harston until all the staff bailed and they replaced with people who don't call back....

That's the one John. My car is going there in about 30 minutes, just dusting off my running shoes for the 5 mile jog back! ( I was offered a ride)

I think some of the staff are back - some really nice and caring chaps up there now.

Are Andy Matthews and Martin Hollywood back?

I bought my V8 from Andy & Martin.

PS - don't jog, RUN!!!!!

Mcgurks used to be all sales. But now they have Marcus, who came from the factory and was also part if the v12 zagato team that went to the ring, so he knows his stuff. And obviously they have all the diagnostics etc too. Worth a look.

I used Amersham for my last service. Good guys, you can normally negotiate a deal.
Which reminds me still need to book mine back in for a door module they identifed as needing replacing, and refurb of wheels!

I've had to use JCT600 in Leeds for mine and they've been really good so far, nice clean Bimmer courtesy car, regular updates from the workshop controller and lots of warranty work going on/being approved. Pick her up later on today so hopefully I'll still be in a positive mood smile
