On the recommendation of a friend I took our 1982 Chevette to Meridian Services garage in Greenwich.
Unfortunately, she needed a lot of work for her MOT as her origanal 26 year old shocks and rear brakes had given up the ghost
Usually when faced with getting parts for Courgie, most garage staff ask whats a Chevette and my answer to them is '"ask yer dad".
However, the garage (inparticular Billy) was absolutely brilliant. He'd managed to get all the parts bar 2 which I got off e-bay and arranged for them to be sent to the garage direct. They don't seem to mind fitting customer's parts which they haven't supplied. The work was completed on time & in budget.
Courgie is now back on the road with a nice fresh 12 month ticket. I will of course be taking Mandapanda there for her MOT when it's due later in the year.
Their details are :
Billy
Meridian Service Garage
Unit 8, Brocklebank Industrial Estate (Turn left as tho your going in to Matalan off Bugsbys Way, - and its on the left.)
London
SE7 7SX
0208 858 5991
I thought I'd let you all know about them, as good garages are hard to find.
