Anybody have any experience with this garage?

Passed it a couple of times and liked the look of some of their stock, I'd like to find a decent independent garage for future use and I'm due an MOT soon so thought I might give them a try.

Cheers, booked in there tomorrow morning. They seemed quite helpful on the phone so hopefully they're a good bunch.

We test drove a mini there yesterday, friendly guys, and the SLR was amazing...

Unortunately the Mini was missing some key specs Rich wants

MOT went smoothly, only needed a sidelight bulb which they charged pennies to supply and fit.

Had a nose around the show room, the owner seemed like a decent bloke, put up with me barking on about how nicely built the Westfield was (potentially missing the point when there's a Healey and an SLR sat next to it).

Seemed like a nice garage, I'll probably be back for any other none warranty work.
