PUBLIC APOLIGY..
I posted on someone’s post where to get a car mapped,people recommend Mark at Thwaites in Warwick,I disagreed and said I felt conned and ripped off with his service,this is NOT the case as I listened to people who knew nothing and I am very sorry for slagging Mark and his company off.
It takes a big man to say sorry and that is what I am doing. Sorry .Jimmy

I wouldn't worry, I don't think many took that thread too seriously

I would link this post to that thread though for future browsers

Fair play mate. Mark's done loads of work on my car. In-fact I've been there today, and he always gives you a fair and unbiased opinion even if it costs him business.

Chatted to Jimmy for ages last night. The guy is getting taken for a mug when all he wants to do is make his impreza a better car and spend his money on doing things right. He's spending money on getting it running right and mapped correctly, a geo set-up, new suspension, wheels, brakes etc, but theres some people on here that think they can take the mickey with their prices or advice.

Luckily Jimmy has wised up a bit and has a good few people he can call on so hopefully now we can educate him to REMOVE THOSE BLOODY STICKERS! lol

Good luck to ya mate.

Had my WRX mapped / new turbo/ injectors / fuel pump / uppie all done by Mark this year. Really pleased with the result - very knowledgeable guy. Highly recommended by me.

You do realise that it would actually look pretty cool as a yellow/black classic, WITHOUT stickers!

I know this is a type R, but you get the idea. Get some black crystal headlights and sides like mine, black front lip spoiler etc, would look cool and less of a midlife crisis!

Well done Jimmy. I think more than a few of us saw you as a bit of a wind up merchant when you first came on here, but you are getting involved with the forum nicely now and I think a few peoples opinions are changing, including my own. Keep it up fella .

Clean classics look better, less chavvy and more of an enthusiasts car. Theres not many yellow ones around so a good one with clean lines etc would stand out, for the right reasons.

When I used to have my scoob,I quickly realised that advice from Mark was good advice-I never bothered going elsewhere after that.
Top bloke,top team and I miss my little visits to have work done!
As we all do,you live and learn mate!
