Hello there.
My car currently has full Lotus service history, I was wondering if this was worth keeping up to date. The reason I ask is that my dad is actually a car dealer and his garage has full servicing facilities, and to be honest I would trust the people I know there to do a proper job. Plus we have full new copies of the lotus service manuals and scheduals. It’s not such a problem now, but when it comes to cam belt replacement time etc, I begrudge paying god knows what an hour for someone who could well be on YTS for all I know just for a stamp. I would get better piece of mind using a trusted mechanic who has worked faultlessly on my race cars for years.
I guess the problem comes when it’s resale time and buyers just want the Lotus stamps, whereas in my opinion most main dealers are shite and if they didn’t have a franchise, their arrogance and incompetance would put themn out of business in weeks.
Good lord, just read that back and it’s turned into a rant!
Andy.
