Re: servicing and maintance

I used to get mine serviced at Central Alfa in Dudley - always did a good job and reasonable charges too. Also the showroom is full of Ferraris, lamborghini's, Evos etc - worth a visit to see what's in there.

Re: servicing and maintance

Central Alfa was only half of the set up, the other half being Xtreme performance (Used to be known as rallyart).

The Xtreme part is still running and they will still service Alfas in and out of waranty, good guys too.

Now at The Old Forge Estate, Dudley Road, Stourbridge, DY9 8EL.

Motormech`s owner Paul Gilbert is a first class guy. Great prices too.

I live 5 mins away from Lye and never even knew about that one? I`ll pop by and say hello one of the days...good to know of a very close indy.

WAD also come highly recomended, but i have never used them.

There is also a place in Tamworth PJ Motors...... PJ Motors, Tamworth, UK - Alfa Romeo Specialist, Alfa Romeo Servicing

Welcome Belle Hawthorn Garage, opposite Sutton Park, was the first ALFA garage I ever used. Trouble is, they switched to Renault about 30 years ago! The good thing was, chief mechanic Alf recommended I go see Willie Dick in Wolverhampton - so started a long and pleasant relationship with WAD, which continues to this day.

Re: servicing and maintance

May I reccommend these guys: Home base in Lye near Stourbridge, very reasonably priced and honest, used them several times this year.
