Great shop near Alexandria for Lotus work?

I have been doing a fair bit of maintainance on the Elise myself, and most is relatively easy. But I'd like a shop to flush my brake fluid and coolant. Of course Criswell can do this, but they are far away, and it would take most of a day to get up there and back. Anyone with an Elise deal with a local shop here in Alexandria? There are plenty of German-focused places, but I haven't heard of any that work on the Elise.

Not in Alexandria, but Ferrari of Washington may be close enough to you.
I have my brake flush kit from Rennsport. You are welcome to use it.

hey I need the same stuff done, if you find a good place PM me.
I went to Ferrari of Washington a couple weeks ago to get some stuff done and it all went great. I was thinking of bringing it back to them
FOW and Funktion Auto are almost as far away as Gaithersburg. How are their prices? Come to think of it, I can call one of my friends who knows Walid (owner of Funktion Auto) and see what they can do.

Bob, might take you up on the brake pump. Was it a difficult job? How did you cycle the ABS to get fluid through it?
