When I moved a year ago, I looked around for a mechanic. My car was due for its pink slip and I needed someone close to home so that I could walk. I didn't have to look far as there was a mechanic around the corner.
I thought it was a full service petrol station but the only thing they don't sell is petrol. They have pool chemicals, milk, chocolates and potato crisps.
They also have a huge following - always good news for a mechanic.
If you want to get your car serviced you have to book as there are plenty of cars parked in the forecourt of this ex-petrol station.
If however, you are a female and you have an emergency, they are absolute gentleman and will look at (and hopefully fix) your car.
They carry out rego checks, wheel balances, sell tyres and do normal services. They also do services at a fixed price so you know what you're up for before you go ahead. read more
