Good afternoon gents,

First post I,m afraid so very boring.
Are any dealers in my area interested in servicing my car? (wilts-ish, somerset-ish, possibly berkshire-ish)
Tiley's have not returned my enquiry (not too keen on using them as the alarm upgrade they fitted was held in place under the dash with bits of the box it came in) and Milway cannot supply me with a kurtsey vehickle.
I would use Hendry's but they cannot carry out warranty work and my car is a '98 (gnnn) ex. demo. (dubble gnnn) and I am losing much sleepage pondering the imminence of piston slap. Any recommendations peeps?

Dear Navigator,

What I was was trying to imply is that I bought my (uk supplied)car because, not only was it the best performance car per £££ but had a enviable reputation for reliability, longevity and dealer customer service. Turns out that IMHO the dealers are average, my car may suffer from a design fault (piston slap) that should really be subject to recall, inspection and rectification. End result that I'm starting to feel tad nervous and am considering chopping the car in; that's all really..

Dave,

Many thanks for the offer, if I get stuck then I'll give you a bell. Maybe I could tie in a tour of the peak district (if anybody is other than flame throwing vets are allowed in at the moment)
