Thanks for the details George, I just got off the phone to these guys

The guy sounded really nice on the phone and helpful and they'll do the waterpump and coolent for an extra £110 ontop... 50miles each way but I know its in safe hands (i hope )

[alexx]

oh and actually totally forgot to ask... WHAT does everyone think to the waterpump getting done at the same time... do they last forever or is this a wise move whilst the cambelts getting changed? I know there on the same loop if that changes anyones opinion 1.8i mitsu engine

Or you try this one in Leicester, I've only used them once but seem honest, an I was pleased with their efforts.

I've used Sheffield & Meredith for 9 years - always good, no problems, fair prices.

Hiya

thats te fella, and the garage is not that small, its only the driveway/entrance that is small, think "The Tardis" :-)

As for cheapest, well if Nic was slightly more than someone else i would still use him cause i trust him.

Cheapest and most reliable dont always go hand-in-hand
