Ducati has a passion for its brand and that passion has rubbed off on all of us involved in this project. It has been an exciting project for me personally which is something I enjoy and it has been encouraging to see local motorcyclists so enthusiastic about Ducati Nottingham.”

Tim Maccabee, Managing Director of Ducati UK who attended the VIP opening and official launch was equally enthused about the new Ducati store. “Nottingham is my home town so I am particularly pleased to have such a high quality dealer here.

Nice to hear of a Dealership opening. Didn't I also hear of a Ducati Cambridge dealership opening too ?

You must have heard right JP.

Quoted from a DOCGB circular email recieved today..

"The Vindis Ducati Cambridge Branch in Harston is launching on Saturday 12th March. The Nene Valley branch will be there so let’s make our presents known. The address - High Street, Harston, Cambs CB22 7PZ, a little North East of Meldrith just off the A10, for those that have attended the midsummers day Meldrith Bike Show."

Don't forget to take your "presents"...

Just brought a Monster 821 from here, Brilliant Team which made it very easy to part with my money but looked after me on the price side

Just a question, what made you buy from Nottingham Ducati rather than Itali Moto in Lincoln, just curious?

Well I was looking for a 821 Stripe and sadly John @ Italia didn't have one around without getting it in from another branch.

The guys @ Italia Lincoln are really top blokes but on this occasion Mark and Curtis at Ducati Notts really looked after me Service wise and with a sweet deal for my first duke! (first bike infact)

Brraaaaaaap

I remember him as an apprentice at the now defunct Marcol Motorcycles

Happy times not that I could actually recall them all exactly as they happened...

I remember Marcol. they were the guys who said they could service my bike and have it back within the day. When I collected it they hadn't done what I'd asked them to do and when I asked why they said they didn't have time. I don't think they could have set the shims correctly anyway because the engine was still too warm and needs to stand overnight. I never went back there again anyway and they're not there anymore. I know why now.
