Garage in Reading, RG1

spugzbunny

Hello Everyone,

First of all , apologies if I've posted this in the wrong place - mods feel free to move me if you think I'd be better elsewhere?

I am looking for a good garage in Reading. Mainly to do my MOT and any extra bits that may drop off my car in the mean time! I have an N reg Micra so I don't want a mechanic who will treat my car like a brand new BMW if you know what I mean!

I would like a cheap, reliable, old-man garage who will do the job that is needed at an appropriate cost for the age of the car. I'm more than happy to use second hand bits if they are still road worthy!

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance! :beer:

Yes thank you I have checked Yell. I've lived here for a few years now so I know where the local garages are ... just not who is good and who is bad! I was hoping some MSEers might be able to recommend somewhere - somewhere that they use?


I haven't checked good garge scheme tho so I'll look at that now. Thanks!

Edited to say - that is a very good website - thanks!
