The peoples view of Clubs and garages

Another tuner is Avanti motorsport (Avanti was featured in the revs buying guide), but a turbo I went to look at for sale there was very dodgy e.g. according to recent service history stamped by his garage, the car had done 1000 miles in two years, yeah right - a bit of clocking methinks.
Also many different people I've spoken to at italian car events all say its a very dodgy place e.g. take loads of money to do very little to your car. Even when I rang the bloke up he didn't seem to know what he was on about.
Cann durrant came highly recommended by all the people I spoke to.
The club you mention at Langport - thats a small village near glastonbury where I went to look at the rusty e-reg.
I know of the FIAT motor club (although they havn't written back yet- I sent the letter yesterday) in glastonbury.
address:

FIAT motor club (GB)
HA colleyes,
Barnside
Glastonbury
Somerset
BA6 8DB
Tel: 01458 831443

This is from the back of fast car. It seems strange that there is another club only 5 miles away in langport called the FIAT motor club as well. What do you know of it? Are they linked?
The one in revs called 'Circolo' never wrote back after two letters - Have you tried them?
There's one in Fast car again called the 'Uno turbo drivers club' I wrote to this and recieved the most poorly written photocopy factsheet I've ever seen- like a spelling mistake every two words and phrases like 'we'll sort ya out mate' thanks but no thanks.
Its basically a very poor advert for a garage called vipertec motorsport in poole in dorset.

Hi hadders The stuff from the FIAT motor club GB arrived. it looks like a well organised club and has been going for 50 years (originally catering for fiat 500's and 600's) There are registers for every type of fiat including unos and they organise lots of events all over the Uk and has about 10000 members. The uno registers up in oxfordshire some guy called ray howes. JOIN IT!

DO not join the Uno Turbo Owners club in Poole. He does not seem to know very much about Uno's and has never owned one. He charges �10 a year for membership and does not tell you what you get for your �10. He runs the club from home and is not friendly. How can anyone run a club when they are not passionate about it ??????
