Trustworthy car MOT, service and repair Romford??

Post by iLoveLasagne »

I have recently bought an old Polo GTI (2000) having not driven for a while. Got fed up of being fleeced by mechanics and traffic wardens and hit and run drivers but changes meant a car is required again.The Polo seems to be in reasonable shape given I paid so little for it but I think the ABS may need looking at. The sensors were changed but the light still appears. Also, the gearbox seems a bit knackered. It selects fine but it just feels very worn out which is common I am told. So I may need this looking at soon. MOT due April so likely to get it serviced then too.

Can anyone recommend a good garage in the Romford area? The last mechanic I used in Crow Lane was very dodgy I discovered and another I used in Romford was very expensive when repairs were required. £700 to replace suspension bushes on an old Fiat! I don't know if that was the standard cost but it seemed ridiculous to me so I thought best try somewhere else this time. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thanks

Not yet. But a garage on Brentwood Road has been recommended to me so I will probably give them a go.

My mate owns a garage just off forest road, hainault. Good for mot's as well.

Let me know if you want his number.
