Go on then, who do you trust in Rugby to work on your cars?

You may do most of it yourself but if you had to take your car in for some work, who in Rugby could you trust not to rip you off?

I've decided not to sort my steering wobble myself, but get it done. Had an old boy down somers road quote £99, gonna get more quotes. Until now I trusted Runabout for tyres and MOT (when it was £19) and GT motors for my mechanical work.


I took it to another place (wont say in case it offends) but they tried to blame me for mis diagnosing the problem, when it turned out their part was faulty and had to go to HQ to override their resistance to do the job again. Runabout seem to give me the sucking of teeth and "Ooo, thats gonna cost ya" routine if its anything other than simple, I went round the corner and GT did the job for £50 without question (ABS servo fitting)

If I need someone 'close', I go to Xtreme in Dudley. Otherwise, I go to WRD.

You know I forgot about them, yeah they are good. I had a backbox i needed fitting and they did it for 20 quid

they have a garage around the back but the waiting list is long... i guess thats a good thing

Funny though, their tyres aren't that cheap anymore, shame

Bodywork dude best value is the chap who worked out of a barn on the road that leads through strwberry fields (castle road I think?)
anyway, he's moved out and has his own pad now, just done the fathers Audi a4 and he's very impressed with him. He did my whole bodykit on the peugeot for £200 cash

Ah, I see, I thought so ;)
