When I heard of them - its in my local town, I went round to scope it out. Its tiny - like a little back street place. There's no way they carry much stock.

Good thinking Batman.

I myself normally get others to do work on my car, depending on what it is, as even though something may be a piece of piss to do, it's always better having someone to blame in the event of failure (parts or whatever). i.e. legal redress.
Though it also depends on how much i get charged. If it's twenty quid (i get 'mates rates' just about anywhere i go now) then it's more convenient than having to wash my own hands afterwards. Even though i wear latex gloves. :lol:

Although i do free work on my mates cars (stuff that i pay to have done on mine :lol: )
