I seem to remember there was a list of coop friendly garages, not just the few gurus we have left but places where people got good service, does it still exist?
I seem to recall there was one relatively close to me in South Somerset, possibly Somerton? I know there is an Italian garage at Ilchester but only ever seen a coop there once.

Try Lui Basta at LB Autos in Somerton. http://www.lbautos.co.uk/

He knows his Italian cars, is good value and won't do any work unless it is needed. He has looked after my cars for years.

regards

Tony

Thanks Tony, I found it on another Fiat site, had it booked in for next week but alas it didn't last that long! Lui sounded great on the phone and had owned a coop himself.
