Gets a good recommendation in the wiki. Just wondering if anyone has had their Syncro in there for a service/MOT etc.
Any other London/M25 recommendations would be appreciated as I need to have the van checked over professionally.

Danke :ok

I always find it better to take the van to people who know the T25 / VW well!

Try Duncans's in Byfleet, always plenty of older VW's and T25's around, Adrian has a Doka Syncro and one of the other guys has a Caravelle (I think) - they know them well - they also do MOT's. The train station is only a 5 minute walk if you need to leave the van for the day..

I agree Adrian knows what he is looking at for sure.

I have been using this garage for my van since 2007 and my old T2 bay before that. Mike who runs the garage has 30+ years of working on classic vehicles. I have had no complaints so far.

Yes indeed. I used him for my mot just before my French trip(which I'm still on :D ) and I'm very happy with the service. Top bloke even if the fuel tank location threw him a bit :D was very interested in the van and I'd defo use him for work needed.
