Re: Black wheel refurb at Lepsons ?

I had Lepsons do 2 * 10 year old MINI gloss black centres and diamond cut rims & 2 * 40 year old Fuchs satin black centres and anodised rims. Can't fault the colour match. The good reputation these guys have is well wearned. I'd trust them.

Re: Centre Console Vent Issue – Now Fixed

Thx RSPN. I dug out the invoice. £370 in Oct 2019 for a strip down, diagnosis of motor not working and replaced with new vent assembly (dated Sept 2019).

Re: MY 16 5 year service

Thx! That sounds like what I am after. I have contacted a few places near me in Chelmsford and not been impressed by eith main agent or independent. So I think I’ll give the a ring and do the drive too. Much appreciated!
