I'm in Desperate need of a Vw T25 friendly Garage in North Wales. Somewhere that doesn't tell me to get rid of her. One look and its ''Oh I've got a pet hate of those vans''. I've had my van for 11 years and the biggest problem in that time is finding a willing and able Garage/Mechanic. I eventually found a great one when I lived down south- Chris Cross Motors North London. But then I moved. Yes there's AVW Caernarfon But I haven't had very good experiences there. And I've been a few time. Please help. I don't want to part with my Dear Van. Thank You

Thanks very much for that. Little bit of a trek from Anglesey. But does sound worth it. I'll give him a bell. Thanks for your quick replies.

Faenol Garage in Kinmel Bay, although he's just a 1 man band in an industrial unit he's a VW nut & has owned various T's, he's currently restoring a bay & seems to know his stuff

Steve every time, a top knowledgeable chap indeed and the founder of this very forum

Thanks Bamba 'VW nut' sounds like the man of my dreams! She booked in with Steve at Gasure. Just have to wait a bit. She keeps blowing water pipes off. Following a bit of research on here, and on the off chance have ordered a new Darlek cap from Brickwerks just in case its something as simple as that. But a visit to steve's is needed as she's been in the hands of some very uncaring garages for the last few years. And needs a knowing eye and a bit of TLC to get her on track.
Thanks All
Abbie

I know this is a very old thread but I was wondering if there were any updates to this? Did you (OP) visit any other garage? Are there any other recommendations?

I recently bought a T25 (1982, Aircooled, hightop, LPG conversion) and am looking for a friendly garage in N. Wales. I'm in the Llandudno/Conwy area.

I'm thinking of calling in on Faenol Garage - I like the idea of a one man VW nut. May have to do the trek to Chester though, since I have an LPG conversion.

Why not just heed the original advice and visit Gasure?

The only reason is that I'd like to find a closer garage - It'll make visiting the garage easier to fit around work.
