If anybody is interested in receiving the details (Excel spreadsheet)of the dealers (non IM only) who have been recommended to me by users of this site for servicing, please e-mail me direct. I can't say I've got the country covered and I can't vouch for any of the info I'm afraid. Needless to say, any more info, good or bad, would be gratefully received.

My car has been looked at by 3 IM dealers.
None of them would touch it as it is a platinum import.

Officially I can not receive IM approved body parts for my respray.

Although the car runs like a dream and I have enjoyed translating the 22B manual and service schedule, I am relieved that Scooby Sport is able to service it.


What really annoys me is that I have to make one phone call for a grey body part when the official garage can't.

I am not sure whether I will become litiginous again!

It is rather pathetic when you consider the "King Canute " position of IM!

My car has a service history from an IM dealer and when it needed body parts they came from IM.

Anders.

Please don't analyse my need to point out mistakes (yes I was crap at most things at school).

I work in the Security Industry, imagine how embarrasing it would be if I detained somebody for Burglary and he ended up being charged with Buggery.
