Re: Good Experiences with Dealers/Tuners?

Here's service for yer. I've needed parts before, along with club friends after shops have closed, say 7 or 8pm. I/ We have phoned Warren at Surefire Lambretta and he's told us to nip over and he would open the shop for us so we could get our bits. Now that is customer service. :D
