Default RCM today

well I finally got there today after tagging along with Ron in his fabulous 22B who was having a minor service and a minor brake issue sorted
all photos from my iphone so apologies

This place is smaller than I thought but clearly possibly the best at what they do....gobstopper 2 is near completion and will be immense. Wish I won the lottery to book the car in for major work here! The place was immaculate!








a few hanging in the car park

this one is well known and 690hp



and then just to make the day even better, this turned up, one of the ex staff who now works for Noble




thanks to Ron for a great day in the cold sunshine....bloody knackered after getting up at 5am tho

The place is spotless isn't it. Love the noble m600 but could think of a better colour for the wheels!
