Question

OK, coming up for 82.5k service and need to get geometry looked at too. (It's never been right since T&C looked at it)

So the question is, where is best to go for both of these Isn't there a place on the way to forfar that a lot of folks rate? They any good for Geometry too?

Car is UK so would prefer main dealer

Cheers folks

I would second The Saint's post for Brian Downie, he is in the process of doing work on my STi & has been great to deal with. I went to him as a result of another recommendation on here and have not been disappointed. I am fussy and have had issues with other places in the North. Please note I have never used T&C so it was not them that gave me problems.

Numptie - I thought it ws Ulan Bator ?

Quote from some website google through up:

"(both: oolän´ bä´tôr) or Ulan Bator [Mongolian,red hero], Chinese Kulun, city (1995 est. pop. 600,000), capital of the Republic of Mongolia, E central Mongolia, on the Tola River. It is situated at the foot of the Bogdo Khan Uul, which rises 3,000 ft (914 m) above the city. It is the political, cultural, economic, and transportation center of the country. Manufactures include woolen textiles and related goods, leather and footwear, soap, paper, iron castings, cement, glassware, beer and spirits, and processed foods. Coal mined nearby provides power. Ulaanbaatar, which has an international airport, is the junction point of the country's major roads and caravan routes and lies on the Trans-Siberian RR, which links (since 1955) Russia with Beijing. The city has the only university (founded 1942) in the country and a library with ancient Mongolian, Chinese, and Tibetan manuscripts. In the center of the city is the Sühbaatar Square (with an equestrian statue of the Mongolian revolutionary leader for whom the city is named).

Founded in 1649 as a monastery town, Ulaanbaatar still preserves the monastery section, the former center of the city, and the residence of the Living Buddha, once Mongolia's spiritual leader. In the 1860s the town prospered as a commercial center on the tea route between Russia and China. There in 1911 autonomous Mongolia was first proclaimed. During the Russian civil war the city was (1921) the headquarters of the White army of Baron von Ungern-Sternberg. It was made capital of the Mongolian republic in 1924, when its name was changed from Urga [palace] to Ulaanbaatar. The city was developed with aid from the Soviet government, and the first industrial combine was established there in 1934. "
