Question

Hi all,

I've collected my car after repairs, but it still isn't nearly as good as it was before. Timing belt was slightly damaged, powersteering makes sounds, engine makes unusual sounds too and smells strange sometimes

So, I need timing belt changed, oil&filter change and overall engine check-up.

Can anyone recommend a good place around Glasgow?
I only know of Eaglesham, but it can be pricey I'm afraid.

TIA,
Sergey

Alright, KBM is pretty close to where I live, so I'll try them first. And I'll keep the one from Bishopton in mind.

Thanks, guys.

Hen-gliding is a perverted hang-gliding for those who did not understand (are there any?)
Just search the Net for hen gliding, you'll get some like this:

Anyway, gliding was before the scoobies. It's about as thrilling as scooby-gliding, but depends on weather, hills, wind, etc.

There's a good HG school in Glenshee BTW, seems like the only one in Scotland.
