BENNY's LEIGHTON BUZZARD

I have recently had a gearbox fitted here. £150 and there was bolts missing around the bell housing. My car got broken in there and they accepted no responsibility and it turned out to be one of the staff....

They also done a wheel bolt up with an air gun and threaded it... It was held in place with A LOT of lock tite....

Whilst test driving the rag the cars ... hard... and half of them don't own a licence any more.

I over heard them talking about a PULSAR GTi R which they blasted up the bypass at 130.

In general their jobs are sloppy, i found crisps in my old gearbox and car.


Anybody heard of this place?

Re: BENNY's LEIGHTON BUZZARD

They are an Indy. I am 90% sure they own the F1 garage opposite Sandhills too.

Sounds like anyone in Leighton Buzzard should avoid Bennys!

Re: BENNY's LEIGHTON BUZZARD

Yh Benny owns Both BENNYS and f1. The compete. F1 is amazing though they are so good but labour is £60pph and Bennys is £55pph. f1 wanted 300 to do a gearbox but bennys wanted 150... so....


F1 is very professional though and provide a VERY good service.

Re: BENNY's LEIGHTON BUZZARD

If they have the same owner they can't be that different surely?
