steve-n Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 dont whatever you do take it to Peter Smith's he will rob you blind and then kick you in the knackers.... for pleasure. If you want it offically stamped take it to Nick Whales in Bromsgrove, if you dont want the official stamp and want an independant specialist take it to HORIZON MOTORSPORT in Cradley Heath. You won't be disappointed with Horizon Motorsport. Ask others on this forum ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin R Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 It depends how much a dealer stamp means to you. If it means a lot go to Nick Whales ( £90 ish per hour ) Most on here regard a stamp from Horizon to mean at least as much ( £38 ish per hour ) You pay your money you make a choice.

Ladders Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Allister, might be worth giving Martin and Steve Edwards at Lotus Power a try. Pretty close to you as they are based in Quorn (Leicestershire) [email protected] or I can PM their phone number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_C Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 if its the cars 1st service surely it needs to go to a dealer for the stamp so that the warranty isn't void?? Nick Whale's prob best bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin R Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I think you will find you can take it anywere now as long as they use genuine parts. That monopoly has now been stopped i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
