| Like all specialist craft an amphibious car needs regular servicing. This page is for the benefit of owners, in time we will add updates, tips, servicing suggestions, special offers etc.
We want to hear from YOU with any tips or modifications that have improved your amphib. Refers to all our amphibious cars unless otherwise stated.
Buying one of our amphibs? email or call us with the chassis number and we will give you our history on the car BEFORE you part with any money We offer full servicing/repair/MOT/GRP repairs/fitting extras etc for our amphibs, our standard hourly rate is £49.50 + vat. A tale of woe :- If we give you a quote for work and you show it to some part time mechanic or back street bodger we guarantee they will under cut us, they work on the assumption that they can do the same work at a lower hourly rate, unfortunately its not quite that simple, we have heard horror stories of our amphibs being worked on - items being removed that didn't need to be removed - similar/cheaper but not identical items being fitted - parts being broken during removal etc etc and more worryingly the work being abandoned and the part dismantled car not being released until an extortionate fee has been paid We have started an owners gallery of our amphibious cars in unusual locations so we look forward to what you may have. We recommend joining the Dutton owners club full info on :-www.duttonownersclub.co.uk | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
