Hi, I'm trying to find a good mechanic for my T25 Petrol 1900cc in my local area. I have found a good engineer but I have to source parts and after a recent experience (2 day fitting of my shiny new stainless exhaust) he left me with a clear message that he's not that keen to do anymore.Dubstruction is near, has anybody had any work done by him/them? I'm about 45 mins drive from Holmfirth and like Brickwerks but need someone a bit closer(with shorter lead times ?).
Thanks Steve
T25 mechanic in Marple, Stockport area

If you do find anyone let me know because when and if the time comes for me to find a reliable mechanic i'm stuffed. The local garage has closed last month and when i was asking around for help with my van last year i was met with a total lack of enthusiasm. I had a chance encounter with a fellow t25 owner in Macclesfield at the time and he mentioned two mechanics who had done work on his van before but i haven't used them because i ended up doing the work myself. They were Cottage St garage 01625 426507 and J and B Motors Bridge Mill Clowes St 01625 431892 both in Macclesfield.
Think i'll probably contact a few of the guys who are members of 80 90 Jim Painter in Crewe 07854516387, Brickwerks or Muddy Fields Campers Warrington 01925 444359, i think theres also a vw place in Stretford.
