afh1 mansfield

[alfonso romero]

didnt know if any of you guys knew this garage..
just had a service there and a whole load of suspension work done..

brill service and great price.....

the garage is run by martin and he really knows his stuff

[braddersR]

Didn't know about it fella .... long time no see

[Chocoboy]

bit far for me really i use Alfa Tecnico at Huthwait, logical choice really, as i'd have to drive straight past it to get to Mansfield

[Pud237]

Martin at AFH1 is really good, he is a very highly qualified Alfa-trained technician and certainly knows his stuff.

[Inotrope]

Excellent Website; I might give him a try.

I really rate Louis at Alfa Technico; we are spoilt for choice in N.Notts now!

[Chocoboy]

lucky us

My bella is in @ AFH1 this friday as martin has already concluded what is wrong with mine and i hope this will cure it.
Very impressed with martin so far and if the front exhaust pipes are the problem then i will be over the moon once it is done.
Will keep you all informed this friday night.

Putting 2 and 2 together and probably getting it wrong, is this Martin who used to work at Beechdale in Derby?

[alfonso romero]

yes im sure he said he did

In that case it will be a cracking outfit

Will probably still use alfatecnico (I'm a sucker for loyalty) but useful to know as a back up

[richard kelly]

I have dealt with Martin at Beechdale And he is a number one guy - really knows his stuff.

[dannyboy13]

i used to work with nice lad not much he doesn`t know bout alfa`s

[fildigger]

Ok then, so we have two good alfa specialists in North Notts............i live in Derby and being as this is my first Alfa, Is there any competent specialists in or around the Derby area?

Hope i dont need one for breakdowns but servicing and parts is my main concern for the moment.

Thanks , in advance, Phil.

Euro car care in derby is quite well thought of

Thanks lewi, i am aware of them but although i have never used them, i have heard rather luke warm feedback for them!!

Really looking for one of those independents, that have thorough knowledge/experience and equipment in the Italian/Alfa field.........maybe asking to much without having to travel out of the area!

i'd still say head for Alfatecnico, it's only about 20 mins up the A38 (just opposite McCarthur Glen, or East Mids designer outlet, whatever ya wanna call it) plus you get a free courtesy car as well while yours is in the garage, and his work is top notch you won't find any complaints on here

[Chocoboy]

i've used him several times now, and he even managed to repair my rev counter when the main dealers told me it was impossible and i'd have to replace it

Danny strikes again Why say it one post when two will do

[Chocoboy]

couldn't have said it better myself

[Chocoboy]

very well said

[Chocoboy]

it's cause i always think of something else to say once i've posted

[fildigger]

Thanks Danny, your right, its this side of Mansfield and as you say ' its only a 25 minute drive from me'.....................I'll take your advice, Alfetecnico is the man for me

[Chocoboy]

you won't regret it Lewis will have you sorted in no time, and as i said if you need it the free courtesy car is an added bonus, i've had 3 now, 3 differt ones too, a 156, and 2 147's

I think editing your original post is the way to go or else you end up sounding like Dustin Hoffman in Rainman
