Popped down to ACE Motorsport today for them to have a quick look at my car.
I've decided they must be good. Well if there good enough to look after ex WRC cars worth about £200K then there good enough to look after mine.
They had a Bug eye ex works WRC car which was driven by Solberg and an ex works 1998 WRC car (22b shape) down there.
Absolutly awsome, did takes some pics for u all but was asked not to posted them as it might upset the owners, which is fare enough.

Looks like this place needs checking out, might be a local option for servicing:thumb:

They are currently based in Newbridge, but are looking for a bigger place at the moment, he's also looking into getting a rolling road and starting mapping road cars (currently only does GEMS and MOTEC ecu which aren't that common in road cars due to cost).
They are very good, i have been using them for the last 2 years and like i said if people travel long distances to get him to work on there £200K rally cars then that speaks for itself.
I believe he is also well connected to Prodrive.
Andy did say he would try and come along to the next meet we have so everyone will be able to get to know him.
