That's Great - thank you for your help - Cheers - Des

I'm new to the NI Forum so hello to all involved - I have a 1988 Esprit in Kildare with 18500 miles on it and although I do most of the maintenance myself I am reluctant to change the timing belt - does anyone have a recommendation as to who in NI does Lotus servicing and would have already done Esprit belts. I cant find anyone in ROI and I did contact Charles Hurst in Belfast as they are going to be Lotus distributors but still haven't had a reply to my inquiry. I see there is often quite a discussion about Timing Belt life and Lotus/Ferrari ect suggest very regular changes but as E.Fox (Engineers) Ltd in Dublin we are Gates Industrial Belt distributors and stockists - according to them the Gates Automotive Timing Belts (which are distributed by an Automotive distributor) should have a working life of 7 years under ideal conditions. Any help or information about finding a garage with Esprit experience much appreciated. Des
