It's a poll.

i think if people want to vote mick thats fair enough,i to have voted,and yes it,s a poll i know that
but some peoples votes change as they have a right to,but dont you think mick as a person who runs a business like myself,there are people on here who chop and change tuners as they have a right to do,because they have disagreements,and because they dont turn out as they would like,and i know in my business you just think i,m sorry i can only do so much as a business,im not a fooking charity.and i look at some of the polls that go on and think well yes i can see why member x as now gone to tuner x from tuner y,and think but if members know the other side of the storys then perhaps they may think as i do that some off the polls on here are a waste of time because they may present results that could be interpritated as missleading.but then again if we dont have polls we would get to see were people are going,so in some ways they may be a good thing as it shows people are voting with there feet and changing tuners
just my thoughts and not a dig at anyone in perticular,dont know wether that makes sense or not mick

So where is GBH Motorsport on the list ..... ?

I've used them and Abbey, no complaints about either. Fine bunch of chaps all round.

Plus I get free coffee at one of them

I use three garages - a different one for each car (and one of the garages isn't even listed!). So I can't vote for more than one and can't vote for all the ones I use anyway!

Still not seeing the garage I would recomend however, must be well known, did things with a GTS everyone else said would never happen before others went down the rout eof making very quick GTS's. Always been a rover person myself hence the lack of posts on here but am picking my new car, a GTR, up tomorrow and wouldn't take it anywhere else, not just because they did outstandign work on my rover and my gf's volvo but because I've seen their work on skylines as well, the fact is they know what they're doing with all cars. The fact the poll misses garages like this out makes it a fallacy from the outset, even ignoring the fact that most folk will go first and foremost to their local "specialist" up until the point they have a disagreement the poll will also be skewed by the "freshness" of a skyline owner dependant on how much work they have required to be done. A poll of recommended garages is a good idea, but a named/shamed area where experiences of different places can be discussed would probably have more impact, due to the opportunity to give more detail about an experience.

I'm with perfect touch all the way on this one. I live in Bournemouth and trailor my car 130+ miles just for the TOP QUALITY service they provide me with. The guys there are very helpfull and go the extra mile, where other tuners ive used in the past will not.

Big thanks to Claudio, Rob, Justin and anyone else behind the scenes.

p.s Car made 830 BHP on race fuel.

I travel 125 miles to Rising Sun Performance and although there are closer tuners to me, that's where my money goes.
