Right the time has come for Val to be serviced, she needs a little TLC and at the moment I'm just not technically minded enough to tackle it myself.

I had some work done at a well known VW specialist in Manchester but was not really happy with the job they did, I won't mention any names here because I don't think my one bad experience is a true reflection of them, however it has really put me off going back there.

I have found a place called Busgutz in Macclesfield, has anyone had any dealing's with them, they are only 15 mile's from me so not a bad option.

My other option is to go and see Simon Baxter in Huddersfield, it's a bit further away at about 35 miles but I could always get the train home if needs be.

What do people think, where should I go? Does anyone have any other suggestions?

We have a 1982 leisuredrive hightop fitted with a 1.6NA Diesel

Thanks guys

Bricky........ but he is VERY booked up...

There is no garage around manchester area doing t25's regualr enough to know them well or if they do i don't know where they get the parts.

Baxter Garage.

Is Gasure too far?

well worth the travel to Simon's (Brickwerks). He has always fixed mine whilst I have waited (5 hours last time)

He is /was booked up until November but you will know it's been done right with quality parts

Just checked, it's 42 miles to Gasure so that's still not too bad. I think it may be best to phone them both up for quotes and lead times

That's this afternoon's activity sorted then

manchester Aircooled?

Well I've done it, she is booked in at the Brickwerks, got in for the very end of October which was sooner than I expected!!

Thanks for everyone's advice
