Can anybody recommend a reputable garage that isn't going to rip the eyes out of me when it comes to repairing my car?

It's just a few minor repairs to a pugeot? Any idea who's the best?

Thanks!

Try Northern Motors in Thurso, just along from the British Legion.

He is absolutely fantastic and a real genuine guy, won't rip you off.

i have been going to george durrand in roxburgh road for 20 years. he is very good and reliable, fast and cheap, he is also employed by the police for breakdown and accident recovery so he must be good. i would recommend him ;)

It's not still run by "Curly" Swanson is it? I would have difficulty recommending him.

I live in Thurso but I'm quite happy to go through to Wick if it means getting a good deal, I've heard that Dougie Campbell in Murkle is a good? And someone else recommeded a guy in Halkirk?

Do not take anything to george hacksaw durrand, he should not be allowed anywhere near a car.he is a liability who knows nothing, plus rips you off. A friend of my b/f got charged£390 for taking his car from georgmas to wick, he ws told by other garages the same job would cost between £80 to £120!

try John's Motors out at Harland (back of reiss) on 01955 604087.

Is a bit slow (because he's really busy) but very cheap and does very good work (especially welding)
