Their statement can only lower our opinion of the present Avonbar management.I had nothing but respect for the previous proprietor.

Had one faulty one and one good one.

The diaphrams are replacable though aren't they?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

i remember going to avonbar in the early 90's, there stuff was always more expensive than freeway (minispeed) but there knowledge of turbos was much better (even though they were never very chatty, replies were almost grunt once for yes and twice for no)

i know from experience that owning a shop is a lot more stress that people think and when the shop went the service got much better

this change of ownership and comments like this dont bode well

I know a guy in Romania who might want one.....he's wanting to turbocharge his Granada there....although Ive a feeling he's a little over his head.
