(What a lovely word)
Anyway
I learned a few things today (lots of people use the word learnt?)
I digress
Took my 2007 QP for its MOT today at Falcon Performance Engineering in Middlesbrough
I learned they are a reputable garage with good equipment, knowledgeable people, friendly and courteous
I learned that my car passed the test 1st time with no advisories. A small question over emissions. It was just in and was put down to a cold morning, short run, still on partial choke.
They also gave it a thorough check over for free (hoping to get a service from me in the future no doubt) and reported that it was in great condition all round.
Also a free valet (they do this valet for every car)
The knock on effect of this good day, is that I have decided to keep the QP, and get it serviced (later)
So next week is the insurance saga (steps already taken) and probably into March for the warranty - just to spread the cost over a couple of months.
Falcon are on Facebook -whatever that is and show a good array of cars, if anyone is interested.
JCT 600 are in Leeds and are also pretty good - but expensive Falcon are about 2/3rds the price
Onward and Upwards
A happy man

Dave,
Could Falcon Performance be called an Indie of any kind..?? Not specialising in anything, or are they..??

Yes they are an Indie
They have worked on Astons, Lambo, Ferrari, Rangies etc
The bulk of the work though is electrics on BMW's so they tell me
Have a look on Facebook for some of the exotica
I think I have scored in having them so near to me

They are an option, but we can't really put them down as a Maserati Indie, even though they may be up to the job..??
