Hi. Not been on for a while but struggling with finding a really reliable Garage/Mechanic in Edinburgh area to work on my T25 Aircooled.
Cheers

Hi, I know its a wee bit of a treck, but David Mylett across in Thornlibank near Paisley gets my vote.

Thanks for the replies. The one in Gordon Street is at the other end on Manderston St. It is just an extension of Gordon St and guess what - that was where I took it last time. Nice bloke but rubbish with exhausts. Fixed my carb mind. Feel free to keep them coming and any contact info. Cheers

PFP coachworks out in Newtongrange are air and water cooled VW specialists. Speak to Sam about any bodywork issues and Gary for all things mechanical or pre MOT's etc. Between the two of them they can do anything and everything and at a fair price too.
