Thanks in advance.

Good question.
Im in the same boat as you as im going to be looking for a FD in a couple of months and also live in weston.
I checked out Dragon and they looked pretty good and i think i\'ll use them for servicing ect.

I think its worth travelling to places with a good rep though, Drove a couple hundred miles for engine conversions before.

There is a Mazda dealer in Clevedon, don\'t know if there any good with older RX7\'s, but i guess it would be the second choice if you couldn\'t get the car down to Dragon..

Not always the case, i worked at Mazda as a tech for 3 years and sorted a few Fd\'s/fc\'s out. The senior tech knew quite a bit about them as well and we used to have quite regular customers.

I popped to that clevedon dearler in my lunch break a few weeks ago to see about servicing.
The guy at the desk gave me a price and then asked wether i would be interested in a finance deal on a new rx8.

Needless to say i would rather travel abit then leave my car there. Once ive made a purchase that is!
