Alfa Romeo 147

Garage recommendations ???

Hi All,

New to Alfa Owner, just bought my first Alfa 3 months ago, (147 TI Lusso 2004). Need to get the rear brakes and pads done along with the handbrake cable casings. Planning on taking it to Alfa aid in Maidenhead, anyone had had any experiences with them?

Also took the cars to a dealership as the wheel bearing went, and needed replacing urgently (didn't wan to drive it anywhere further a field) and they stated that there were a few other things wrong with the car: Roll bar loose, steering rack with play to the left. bushes gone etc. (I can't feel any give in the steering rack) Can anyone recommend somewhere thats not going to rip me off?!?! Loving the car though even with all the problems!!

Cheers

Alfa Aid are superb.

Also, SGT (main dealer) in Taplow is a good dealer, and would probably cost about the same.
