Motorbodies Luton vs Picador Southampton?

I guess Heathrow is just a waste of space. fked me off big time last time the car went for a bearing...

If I take it to one of those distant dealers what happens if the car has to be left there? Hitch hike? Or could I be hoping for a courtesy car?

Also, the main concern that has to be dealt with is the clutch kit since it has been doing the usual. The direct remedy of torquing up some screws made no difference. It is actually coming to a point when when going full beans uphill it clutches on its own and revs like a bd. I end up with revs but no power in crucial moments. I guess it has to be sorted out ASAP, also brake calipers/pads knocking (apparently shims needed - as read in some other thread), front suspension knocks, misaligned bonnet (although muppets at Heathrow once attempted to do sth), misaligned passenger's front door, can they do sth about the wheels? (they look like have been painted and paint peeling off - minor but I know there are tiny bits there), rear misting foglamps (Heathrow attempted to sort it out, but said that if they clear within 20 minutes that then it's no warranty thing, quick indicators (only in Winter - how do I prove it now?), intermitent dash central display not working, or A/C controls completely unavailable, and most of all something wrong with either a steering rack or steering column. When the car is switched off and your attempt to turn the steering wheel as it comes to a point where you're about to turn the wheel you can hear a single knock as if the wheel has just turned on the column. It does it again if you attempt to turn the wheel back the opposite direction, got that checked on the ramp and it might be the part linking the steering rack with the column. Dangerous in my eyes so it'd better get sorted, but can't trust Heathrow Vauxhall anymore...

Help appreciated (especially regarding the service manuals of some sort)

cheers
