Anyone know a decent garage in East Belfast

Two days ago I was driving in town when I heard a snap changing gears. I only got a new clutch put in it about 2000 miles ago although I don't think he put in a new clutch cable. I am hoping that that's the problem. I was lucky to get it home but I had to switch off the engine and take it off at second and stay in that gear as the clutch would not budge. If I was at my folks place I would know who to go to but I am clueless as to where in Belfast I could go. I think someone will actually have to tow the car to a garage. It's a VW Polo 2000 with 108000 miles. I have spent hundreds on this car throughout the year and am terrified of getting ripped off. I think I would scrape it if is going to cost me so much to get it repaired. I am around the Bloomfield area.

This seems to be a common problem with Polos
