    My Jeep wouldnt start on Sunday morning - battery completely flat! one quick phone call, and he was there in less than 15 mins - anther 15 mins and I was up and running, AND he had checked my battery, topped the water up in it, AND checked my oil and advised me THAT needed topping up as well! All this at 9 am on a Sunday morning! Huge bill? No way! totally reasonable!!!!! 100% reccommended

    Good luck to them fair rate at £20.00 per hour. But thats what all new businesses do have a low start rate trouble is once they get a few customers te rate usually goes sky high and the quality drops dramatically .Hope they are different we need some fair businesses up here.

    Dropped my bike off the other day in the van. Whilst having a chat with Paula, Michael reappeared from underneath my van ().
    After announcing that my propshaft bearings are worn but the chassis was sound and investing would be wise.... he had a look at the engine, checked my oil and water, topped both up as there was virtually none in it. I thought that many people would think he's just trying to get more business out of a guy who has no idea what a propshaft bearing does... well, went home, did some paperwork, came across my van MOT from February and the third page says "Advice: propshaft worn"...

    mmmhhhhh, I SHOULD PAY MORE ATTENTION !!!!!!

    Needless to say Michael is doing my propshaft bearings next week when I get the bike back before I forget what he said and break down with the van...
    After that he can fit my tow bar onto the car and do an MOT on the wife's 4x4. Don't think I will be going anywhere else ever again. Keeping in mind the van had an MOT in Feb and had only done a few miles round Caithness, so clearly there wasn't any attention being paid to oil and water at the time.

    I have a petrol cement mixer that won't start...it's an engine, right ? I bet Michael would inspect that if I left it in the van... worth a try...LOL !!!!!

    not much left to do on the bike stefan, just got to go get a chain and then test run you never know, leave it in the back of the van and mention it, he might be tempted to have a play lol

    and haggar, when VAT goes up in january that's the only price rise we will have in the foreseeable future
