Just need to get a few bits and pieces sorted, Walldonway is the closest to me (I'm just outside Canterbury) but I've had a search through old threads and Podie's review of Austec seems pretty cool...what's the general concensus?

I'm not looking for a full service, just some finishing touch-ups...hopefully this won't be too extortionate!

Paint/Stone chips, mice in the bonnet (well somethings squeaking anyway)

I would nip the bonnet off and have a look myself but it's probably not a good idea... maybe i'll just stick with Walldonway then, they are close...

I can't see me takin the Cerb back to Walldonway. The Customer care is lacking & they apparently knew my car for the last 3 years - Austec had it 1 day and transformed it - for 1/2 the price as well.

I can't recommend the Guys @ Austec enough...you could go shopping in Gatwick airport while they have your car!

I checked over a tuscan the other day that walldonway had worked on .. it was actually a very sorted car, all credit to walldonway that I could only find 4 relatively minor things that the owner needed to ask them about .. for a dealer that's very very good going! .. the car drove well and I told the owner that based on what I'd seen I'd say they were looking after the car well.
Always ready to give credit where it's due and on this occasion walldonway appeared to have delivered the goods
