Must admit, never heard of them. It’s a bit further, but I’d be driving down the a38 to see Gav at Unit4 in Burton.

freezing cold workshop, no tea or coffee. Lotus Elan and mx5 in both corners (evening Colin). But he is top notch is our Gav.

Gav doesn't own a kettle. He thinks if he gets one the nice girl from next door won't bring him coffees.  Apart from that he is a top top bloke and knows Elises inside out and is very reasonably priced.  I have taken my Elise there for the last six years which says it all really - and he must be 40 miles from me.

Central lotus in Nottingham is your closest Lotus dealer/service centre that’s where I take mine from Mansfield.

You won’t go wrong with GAV and I travel 60 miles to get to him !! 

Its worth a trip just to view the Elan sprint 👍😂

I have never heard of the place in Mansfield which is odd as i live next door to there and keep my ear to the ground for all things Lotus.  They may be really good, who knows?

I still think you can’t beat recommendation is the best way to go

I’m in Chesterfield and I’ve used Gav at Unit 4 and Jon at Legacy Storm in Leicester. I would recommend them both. Never heard of Stones but looks interesting. I reckon they are slightly more expensive, definitely more expensive than Jon as he doesn’t charge VAT but a lot more convenient being pretty close to home.

Any experiences good or bad with http://www.pjslotus.co.uk

I assume this is Gav at unit 4? http://www.unit4vehicleservices.co.uk

sounds like Gav is a favorite...

Yeah that's Gav.

PJS are very good too.

Gav will look after you. Very fair pricing and what he doesn’t know about Elise’s ain’t worth knowing. I can highly recommend him.

I have been several times with my evora 400, it is an official Lotus dealership and service centre. Very good and efficient.

GAV will sort you out very honest and has built a business on recommendation not advertising

Gav, PJS and Central are all recommended on here. Personally I have used both Gav for my old S1 Elise and more recently PJS who now look after my Evora and I would highly recommend both, Gav as an independent and PJS if you want a dealer stamp...the choice is yours

For Evora service etc would be be best recommended Unit 4  , PJS or Central ?

i had central sort my handbrake under warranty they did a good job but then I wasn’t paying and it was a simple adjustment.

does unit 4 or PJS be more cost effective when it comes to MOT & service than Central ?
