Default Lambo Servicing in the South (UK)

Can anyone recommend a good place to get my Countach looked after? The dealer I'm buying from recommends a place called Carrera Sport in Haywards Heath, West Sussex. I'm in Basingstoke, Hampshire. Carrera did the last couple of services on the Countach and appear to be Lamborghini endorsed.

Any comments would be welcome. It's always nice to have an alternative place to get quotes from...

I'm not from UK but my knowledge is that Carrera Sports is the company of Colin Clarke aka known as Lambo specialist, he restored some miuras as well as Jarama Bob.
I think you can compare him with Gary Bobileff from the states.

Will be picking her up on Saturday! Only 2 days to go! Arrrrrrgh!!!

I'm kakking myself in anticipation.

The dealer is about 200 miles away so my first drive will be a mammoth motorway barn-storm.
