Vehicle Services
Kingston road
Shirley

I know my cars but certain things stump me, they always sort it, first time confidently

I always seem to deal with mark. Go down there have a chat, proper old fashioned service, no bells or whistles

Look them up on google, only garage I can find with a genuine 5 stars

They have opened up ecus on my weird jap stuff, soldered in various new components and had me on the road

If they are 20% as good for you as they are for me, I’d be well happy

Oh that’s a shame, why’s that? Too time consuming?

They’re within walking distance, I actually walk past quite often so popped in. Just a blank ‘not interested’ reply basically?

It's been many years since I lived there but I would have suggested Auto Technix in Shirley.

You could ask in Browdon Motors.

Or in Totton is Kevin, runs a breakers, sells old stock panels at Beaulieu, he's into old Fords, he'd know.

Go into Browdon Motors, ask for Adrian, tell him Ben Curts sent you, Adrian has a Mk2 Lotus. He'll know someone.

For years I used MIchael Mattingly Motors in Freemantle. He was brilliant but retired and the guy who took over wanted to keep the reputation. He appears to have good reviews on Google and the garage is renamed as Park Garage
