Question

Hello Folks,

i was going to use this place for servicing my 94 jap import. Anyone know if they are any good / prices / opinions?

Would be interested to hear anything about them?

Cheers,
Marky-San

Never dealt with them personally but I've never heard anyone using them. I'd stick to someone with good reputation. AWD in Perth serviced my Jap import (timing belt etc). Reasonable priced and good bunch of lads too. Give them a try. If you want someone closer, again having never used them personally you could try Dicksons in Dunblane. They too work alot on Jap imports.

Good Luck.

My reply above was a diplomatic type explanation. You never know who is reading this

Agreed all the same with the additional comments too.

Try Kenny Brown Engineering in Hillington.

Knows his stuff, and is very reasonable.

I was half tempted to use Dicksons (since I also live in Dunblane) but going to AWD for my 45,000 service later this month. IMHO it's worth going to someone who knows Scoobs and has good references.

Richard.
p.s. if anyone has experiences abotu Dicksons coudl they e-mail me off-line (if they don't want to put it here) - just incase I'm tempted to take the easy route and try them (being soo local).
