I can also vouch for Norman, he did some work on my car a while ago for a good price & a cup of coffee  He even sat in the rain doing it

Re: BMC Aycliffe Shutdown!??!
I fear your right Pud, in a perverse sort of way i was looking forward to some sort of car trouble just so i could make a journey there after all the good feedback from this site!

He doesnt fancy it which is fair enough, might be a bit of a big job for a driveway and i'm guessing he has no GTA cam locks.
and cheers richard for the recomendation. got to be worth a call i suppose. |

I swapped texts with Jus - I think he has some other work sorted (not cars). Our loss, but best of luck! |
