Default Rolling Road session - Luton

I was looking to get my Scoob on a rolling road. PTS in Luton do a session for £50, but I thought I'd see if anyone else is interested and we can get a group discount. If your interested, please list your names and I will see what deal we can get and available dates.

i wouldnt touch them with a bargepole. they attempted to rebuild my dads rover engine, well they have rebuilt it twice now, as the first time they tried it only lasted 200 miles.

Now on it's 3rd rebuild, it consumes a litre of oil every 1000 miles it will be a waste of time bringing it back as they took over a month to rebuild it last time.. Muppets

I'm sorry to hear that, but luckily this is not as drastic as an engine rebuild. I've had cars rolling roaded there before without any problems, plus my old 2litre 306 XSI was chipped and lowered there without any problems. Regular performance car groups are there most weekends on rolling road sessions.

£50 sounds a bit much for a group session... Would be interested at a lower price.

I've just been down to PTS to discuss. Without group discounts the sessions range between £50 - £185. The person I needed to speek to unfortunately wasn't there today to get the full specs and prices. The last group session I had there was £30.
They said they can do as little or as much as we want, even to providing food to be purchased and trophies for the top 3 most powerful.

Within the next few days I will get the information to post on here.

So far, depending on price, the following are interested:

StevenUK300 still plus 2 additional Scoob drivers

I'm sure that wouldnt be too much of a problem unless alot of people want to get away early.

Probably best to post on here:

I think there will be 3 mini convoys. One for northbound M1. One for Southbound M1. A few of us are driving down from Hitchin also.

Details should be on the fiat forum
