    Hi everybody, new guy from NH

    I'm looking for a local European shop to do basic oil change and flush the coolant out. I really don't want to go to VIP.

    Thanks
    Bill

    Whatever you do Bill, don't go to VIP. When I first moved to NH I went there for a sticker. It was almost a nightmare. The guy was about to jack it up from the gearbox cover.

    Local guy that I have taken my 308 to is Duncan Automotive. Duncan's European Automotive

    They did my brakes and exhaust work. I do my own oil change but I will be taking her infor a coolant flush soon.

    I guess I should have asked Bill if he wanted a Euorean shop or a Ferrari shop. :)

    If its a Ferrari shop he's looking for, then I would recomend Stephen Oldford from Aston Martin of New England/Lotus Motorsports. www.astonmartin-lotus.com/

    I have heard great things about him.

    Plus he supports this Forum and this Regional Thread cause he's a Sponsor.

    Dave Feinberg at FSB is a bit of a local treasure.

    Ok, thanks for the leads. I really don't want to pay Ferrari price for a oil change.

    +1 for David @ Ferrari Service of Bedford.

    Bill, I think you'll find David's pricing very fair and reasonable. It may be a little more than going to Jiffy Lube, but you get what you pay for. Besides, it can't hurt to call and ask for a quote.

    He gave invaluable advice when I was shopping a couple of local cars and is prepping my new (to me) GT4 now. I'm only sorry that I'll be relocating soon and will need to find someone new.

    Bill , you aren't going to get off that cheap on a oil change. Remember there's about 8 quarts of oil in that motor.

    You never said how long you have had your car so you might need some more service done to her.

    I live near you. If you want, send me a PM and we can hook up. I can give you feedback on some of the shops.
