    Aren't there some well-known specialists on the Wirral ?

    Or if it has to be Oxfordshire have you asked Damax ?

    Thanks Jimmie,

    Yes - I have used JMH and aeperformance of Knutsford.

    Trouble is its still over 4 hours by public transport re: car collection so location is now not the major driver.

    My interest in Terry Keys Motorsport was that they appear to be offering good value for the price - e.g valve timing - Cam covers repainted - and its a full engine out - not the fuel tank removal method.

    So i'm just trying to poll experiences.

    I will also give R&D a call

    Cheers

    Jim,

    Thanks for the pointers.

    Now I am nervous :-( - I know my car very well, and if something wasn't done I would know

    I was attracted by the price from Terry Keys , but this may be short termism

    Guys if you want any servicing done there is only one place to go.. http://www.gtautos.co.uk/

    The guy that owns this place was one of the head guys at Stratstone Little Aston (has a south African accent) and has customers from all over the UK tracking him down as he is simply the best and cheapest around. Comes from F1/racing back ground and is proper Ferrari certed for most models (check out the certificates on the walls if you use him).

    Alot of us Strad owners use him and his work is simply faultless, even to the point of i had some work done to my airboxes yesterday and he made a point of telling and showing me that he likes all screw thread indentations to be facing the same way, now that is attention to detail!

    He has a fair few 348's in at the moment.

    Hope this helps...

    just a recommend for R&D - Nick really knows his stuff. Plus they can collect and trailer the car. They have the full Ferrari diagnostic equipment and I've never had any problem with their work over 6 years. they are really into their stuff and maintain their own team of 360 Racing Scuderias.
    They've inspected my last two Ferraris pror to purchase, asaved me a small fortune by going into microscopic detail. Highly recommended
