Really
I rang Ace Motorsport just before Christmas and they said they would ring back and let me know when they were available to carry out a 30K service, they have not rang me 
Is this a one off? should i give them another chance 
Had a horrible experience with CVC last year, took my V7 STI for a 25K service (plus bleed brakes and look at wing mirror, so 8 hours labour) and they charged me £800 +, I couldnt believe it as my last few services had been sort of £150 - £250 area. So i wont be going back to CVC....... EVER
Your thoughts please
Cheers Paul

STAY AWAY FROM HYELINE

Took it to Andy at Ace Motorsport cleaned out the idle control valve, job done.

Definately worth ringing Andy at ace again mate, He does run a small operation which from what ive seen isnt necessarily a bad thing and seems to be constantly busy not only with the cars that hes working on for the general public but also the rally cars that he prepares and looks after during races.
