Pitstop in brize is the one you are thinking of, they are heavily involved in racing Minis. NOT cheap tho..

Personally I go to southam mini and metro centre, top blokes and cheap too, and I live 5 miles from Pitstop!! They might get a graph of my mini up if you ask! lol

Is it actually in Brize village or is it by the base in carteton?? I've been looking for one for a while round there and have only heard of ones in whitny.

Ah I see. I've never really gone that way before. Could well be worth heading to work early so I can go and have a nose around :w00t:
