Scott at Premier Motors on the Hardgate would be worth a shout. Are you looking at one that is local to the area?

Welcome - I’ve relocated from Bath to Aberdeen and I am between Zeds at the moment, hoping to sort that out by the end of the year and will look forward to catching up with local Zed owners IDC

Obviously not local, however we have an excellent indy in Perth

Nice to find more owners close by, be good to meet up sometime.

For servicing etc. I take my cars to Central Garage in Glenkindie. It's a bit of a drive, but he's very good, ex John Clark who started up on his own. He looked after my M5 for the 7 years I had it.

I've never used Premier garage, but hear good things.

We do seem to have quite a few members up this way!

Reference Central Garage, I take it this is where Dave (ex JD Motors fame) now resides? I'll probably need another garage option soon as Premier appear to be quite busy these days and can't squeeze me in until mid October. As I am now West of the city, it shouldn't be a massive problem to get out that way (getting back might be a problem though unless they do whilst you wait servicing!).

Hi, yes it's Dave Sedgwick, if you've used him before you'll know he's very good.

There was a limited bus service, but I normally got my son or wife to pick me up so I've not used it.
