Jesus - nothing stays quiet for long in this place does it

Think it's best to wait for Chris to give you the low down later on this


Mervin is part of Ecutek next door and has been for a few years

Sad to hear this, he has worked on my cars for a good few years. Anyone know what he will be doing or if he will still be working locally ? Always seemed happy to go the extra mile to try to help you out, and as said with Matt leaving also staff will be a bit thin on the ground

Matt will be going mid june, then we are taking a well deserved holiday, (devon ) to spend some time with the kids, theres only a certain amount one can do for a company before its not appreciated anymore or u get taken for granted, which is a real shame as he has put ALOT of hard work, money and effort into getting it back on track.



As far as im aware Chris is leaving also as ruth said to another RR, and i wish him Goodluck as he deserves it

I read he leaving P.E to go to Brooklands horsepower in surrey.

All the best Chris and thanks for the 6 yrs you have looked after my RST at Powers and now onto YOU looking after my RST @ BHP

Powers have made big mistakes in the past and now Chris leaving IMO this is the biggest mistake powers have ever made

Chris only tuned my S2 once - all the other times it was Mervyn or Steve H. Mervyn was always a good laugh and Steve would always teach me something new about cars every time I went there so although Chris is well respected I'm sure Steve will be a perfect replacement.
