Yeah they've got the Just MOTs next to their old site on Cowbridge Road but this isn't CVC apparently! Would be good if the old mechanics from there went over though

Had a letter this morning from Subaru UK saying about the new Cardiff dealer. Don't think I'll be going there though as my Subaru days are well gone.

Speaking to a guy from Jenkins the other day.
Said that they won't be keeping the Subaru brand much longer! Not selling & mentioned the pricing being too high!

They dont sell very much down there. I went to look at isuzu trucks. They had none in stock used or new. Though they did have a test drive vehicle...... But it was broken awaiting parts

I quickly crossed the road to look at a toyota hilux.

The Three Arches Garage in Cardiff are where the 2 subaru main dealer CVC mechanics are these days. I should know as i get my Spec C serviced there.
