I'd like to say a big thanks to Joe (aka Country Cruising).
A while ago I responded to a for sale add by Joe on this forum for repaired 20VT Exhaust Manifolds. I bought one, but decided it was beyond my skills to fit & also after some investigation beyond that of many garages. It turned out that Joe is in the process of setting up business to repair/service coupes, and was willing to take this job on. I dropped the coupe off in Hereford; several days later (& some other faults fixed with his supply of parts) I got the coupe back, with a clean bill of health & some advice for the future: It's now a joy to drive; the difference from the manifold change & service is amazing.
I'd gladly recommend Joe's business to anybody. Its great to find a specialist who can sort the job out 1st time with no fuss without emptying the bank!
Thanks Mate.

He doesn't just sell parts! He dishes out great advice as well, whether or not you are buying anything from him. I have had a long running saga with my 20v VIS and Joe took the time to call me and give me his considered opinion - much appreciated. By the way, Joe if you're reading this - she's now with Paul at motormech and it's a new engine job

Joe has gone out of his way to help me in my search for trivial little items & spares for my coop, which most other people probably wouldn't be inclined to bother with. - Top bloke!

Have to agree with all the above. I can't recommend Joe highly enough. Not only has he sourced me parts, but he's also taken the time to deliver them personally and offer advice and help with problems.
Top bloke.

Ooooh where did this thread come from, I didn't see this Cheers AndyThornton pleasure doing business with you mate It's true, i've started doing some repairs and servicing now that I have the facilities but it's only on a small scale in comparison to Paul or Roger. I'm mainly concentrating on salvaging coupes for the return back to the fold which should be at the end of the month, but I'll happily help an owners that are stuck for a mechanic in my area. Thanks for all your great comments, I'm always happy to help out if I can long live the Fiat coupe
