Still going through the history folder but it looks like she's on her 12th set of belts at least...

John has looked after her since 1997 at Italia Autosport - the well-known specialists on the edge of the Peak District (coincidentally, in the village I lived in 20+ years ago): http://italiaautosport.com/

Hi Geoff and welcome to CS. Lovely looking car you have there. Always had a soft spot for the Mondial :)
 
I think I read your post about the purchase on PH awhile back...

Congrats and welcome.....

Thanks all.

768 miles in and I'm loving every minute.

Totally different character to my Porsche 964!
 
Might well do, come Spring.

That's quite a collection you have there in your profile page! Is there an entry fee?!
 
Saw a great looking Mondial in your colour scheme pulling out of a drive between Redruth and Helston today! Was that you?
 
"on the edge of the Peak District" :shocked::shocked::shocked:

er, hem, on the edge of the Pennines I think :wink3: :grin:

Meltham is in Gods County, Yorkshire. North of the Peaks.

Car looks very nice though mind, just take caution with Mr Pogsons service charging, just saying......
 
She's safe - hasn't moved from the garage!

I've heard that that the Carrs in Exeter know their way around the older machines and price competitively.

Any experience on this forum?

Firstly welcome and congratulations on finding your car.
I’m in east Cornwall and recently took my 355 to Carrs for a cambelt service and a major tidy up.
Mark is very fair with his pricing and Harvey the tech who will probably do your work is meticulous.
They invited me to come up and have a look and discuss the work when the car was apart. Very refreshing to find a garage that will improvise when the part needed is out of stock or very expensive. I would definitely recommend them.
