Default Special Service

As the better half already said, well pleased with the work done by Andy . I hadn't realized how rough the car had been running until I drove it away after he had worked his magic, feels like a different car now
Only down side for me was Andy's discovery that the rear diff has been eating itself for a while , chunks of metal came out when he changed the Oil. Cars running OK at present but will be going back to him to have a new diff fitted as soon as finances allow. I've just booked a holiday and bought a new tele so bank account pretty empty, just hope the car holds out for the time being.
Andy makes you feel very welcome and makes a decent cup of coffee, he has his 22B up for sale , I had a quick look at it and I'm in love but unless I get the lottery up I will have to dream on.
Anyway, again, top marks to the fella and my full recomendations

Waiting to get Gooners car to them - I spoke to Andy on the phone a couple of weeks back after someone else on here had mentioned them!
VERY helpful and seemed knowledgable too, prices I thought were fair as well!

Glad to hear you were impressed - its good to know that there are a few places around to take our pride & Joys

I'd never heard of them either until a couple of weeks ago .
Andy seems a top bloke, he posts on scoobycity under the name 22b-andy i believe. Seems to know his stuff, great prices and continuous offers of coffee while you wait
They are located in colchester, not too far from the zoo.
