Looking for a good mechanic near Ashburton Devon

Post by graman »

I'm looking for a mechanic in the Exeter/Newton Abbot/Ashburton area – I've been using the same garage for 15 years but they've let themselves down over our T25 they grumble about how difficult it is and that they can't charge the time it's taken etc.

Does anyone out there use a garage that knows air-cooled T25's and won't make it a depressing experience? :roll:

Isn't Elvis from that neck of the woods? If so, he may be able to recommend someone.

Not sure how far you want to go, but CoastVW at South Molton are good.

Another vote for Coast VW, they know their T25s!
