One of the previous owners has already had mine into MSD in the past....theres a proper folder from them detailing everything they did to the car...I'm well impressed with it, looks a very professional service, hence it's going back

I think MSD are up there at the top regards uk tuners. They are clued up seriously not just with mechanical ability but the electric side of things too. never used them personally but wouldnt hesitate

That sounds like a good price for quite a comprehensive set of checks and also peace of mind regarding how things are running.
