Does anyone know of anywhere local that has the bays you can hire by the hour? Need to do a gearbox oil change on my Merc and I'd much rather do it somewhere with a ramp ( and heating!) but the closest I can see is Oxford way..

There is one near Hanger Lane, London, A40/north circular junction, handily next to a big Euro car parts apparently, 'pit start' I think is the name.

My sister said she saw something in Newbury, but can’t find anything on google.

Next to my office in Thatcham, although they seemed to have shut up shop already. When I spoke to them, this was only one of their buisiness ventures , of which hasnt worked. Shame, as they have some nice kit in the unit. They seem to open and close 2 months later. You could give them a call , they may still let you use the ramps as they are usually around doing car cleaning etc.
