Question Fiat servicing ,Stonacre in Wrexham

Does anyone know of a decent Fiat garge in the N. West (ie Mersyside/Manchester area. My nearest is Stoneacre in Wrexham, does anyone have any comment about them as far as servicing is concerned?
I have already contacted their part dept. and they seem quite good.
Thanks for any comments.

Stoneacre in Wrexham are my closest dealer. I used then for my 12k service. For my 24k service I used a different dealer - TJ Vickers in Shrewsbury.
I have booked my car in to TJ Vickers for the 36k service.
See http://www.hmallett.co.uk/blog/cars/...k-service.html

Wink Re: Fiat servicing ,Stonacre in Wrexham

Thanks for that advice Sammiboo. I might go to the Shrewsbury one. Unfortunately, M&K in Colwyn Bay have closed down or I would use them. I have been a customer of theirs for years. The site is being sold for housing developement apparently. It`s a real shame as some of the staff have been there for years.
Anyway,I`ve got about three months to go yet. I want to take it to a Fiat place just to have it checked over properly,well for the first service anyway.
Thanks to all of you for you`r help. Very informative!

Really???

I have used them for years along with the rest of the family

I only received a service reminder from them a couple months back

Last real visit was April time. I was £500 away from purchasing a yellow daihatsu from them. I noticed the old rover showroom was empty and fiat side wasn't bursting at the seams with cars
