General Dilemma time

[Carsaig]

I also have a dilemma that I think can only be solved by the wisdom of Solomon or a good garage.

We have a 2000 round nose Multipla that has done under 60,000 miles. It has been off the road for 5 years in our garage and kept covered. It had some sort of compression ratio or some such issue. We have just bought a brand spanking new SUV and were going to scrap the M. But when we took the cover of we just fell in love with it all over again.

So I want to know if anyone knows a good garage in west central Scotland who can carry out a good refurbishment (not a Fiat franchise who have done it no favours) to a Multipla. As well as engine work, I want a new brake system and being off the road for 5 years the other issues that will come with that.

Can anyone help?

Hi
Petrol or diesel?

It's well worth saving, especially with such low mileage. The early ones (1999/2000) are becoming rare now.

As for the question about a decent garage - I'm at the wrong end of the country so I'm afraid I can't help with that one!

A garage or mobile guy that is used to dealing with Fiat vans ?

this is out of date but may be of use ?

Hello all, hope you're all doing ok in the crazy times we live. Dunno why they didn't follow Sweden's idea, ah well, such is life.
Anyway, didn't come to rant about the cronky virus...

Since I bought that Oby One Kanoby whatsit, the little turd has bin as good as gold.
It might be the Passat that it now shares the drive with, giving it the eebie geebies, probably thinking 'if I behave meself he'll ditch that Prat Passat like he did with the Cliterous' (C4GP Exclusive)
I don't know how long I can keep the Bug going, the underside is looking past it's best and will need some serious TLC soon. I might look for another one - hoping I might find one which isn't so far gone underneath.
They're a bloody hard act to follow.
Anyway, look after yourselves an don't do anything I wouldn't - that's called being er, flexible haha.
