I own a '97 SE7 w/close to 67K miles. I have no problems until I take it to the shop for service where the dealer finds faults and problems that never existed. I hate to imply anything but I need help. I live in the Washington DC metro area and would like to know if anyone other has come across a reliable service shop. I know many of you probably work on your own trucks but I am not qualified.

I have some good news and some bad news;

Good News - I've heard nothing but good news about British Classic Cars, 42495 John Mosby Hwy (Rte 50), Chantilly, VA. (703)327-2287.

Bad News - I cannot recommend Kesterman's Foreign Car Service in Old Town Alexandria. Horrible, horrible, horrible, run away.

That is all,

Actually from Tyson's Corner, its only about an hour to Trevor's shop. And its worth it!
I stopped by Trevor's shop and could tell instantly it was a place I wanted to bring my business. (Trevor-hopefully I can make it back up there next week).
British Motor Cars in Chantilly is just down the street from where I work. I've heard they are a little slow when it comes to completing work. I don't know what ( or if )they are using for vehicle diagnostics.
I've been to every dealer in the Nova area and can't stand them all. It is really hard to find a good place around here. Maybe we can persuade Trevor to open up a branch office around here!
How about it Trevor?
