All sounds good and you're pretty local to me but can you explain the pricing please ?
£50 an hour seems like serious money and times, as we all know, are hard...

To cut a long question short - do you know anyone else who makes fifty quid an hour ?

Best wishes
Monty

thats about the going rate for time on the rollers chap, it's a bargain compared to what the jap tuning companies charge.

Don't forget you're not just paying for the operators time and expertise, the dyno aint cheap to buy in the first place.

I agree with Bud', £50 an hour for a tune on the rollers is not a bad price, I've know it to be more....

Sleaford Mini Centre is the closest to me and they charge £75 an hour. So £50 is pretty good.

I agree with above (obviously) .. I think £50 is quite cheap, alot of places charge more than that. I think specially with the rollers being brand new you get a printout graph for before and after tuning to compare gains as well as simulated 0-60 and 1/4miles times. Somthing that not many rollers can offer.

There is also a free coffee machine and nice leather sofa to sit on! :teehee:
