We have used out village garage for the best part of 25 years and Ron who took over from his Dad who started the garage over 80 years ago (sadly has now passed away) is always very helpful, will not throw components away if for instance they only need new brushes etc, he will pull it to bits and repair, good as new.
Car is always ready when he says it will be, never any dirty greasy marks on the car or unexplainable damage. You are always greeted with a friendly hello, never does he ever try and do more work than is necessary. Having LPG fitted is never a problem to any of my cars. After all that he will send you an account with 30 days to pay. So where is this garage????? If I told you I would have to kill you.
We do have some great craftsmen (English) in this country sadly they are outweighed by all those that go to work on a horse. Mike
