Hi all,

In a moment of impulse, I went and bought a Suzuki Ignis Sport as an alternative daily/toy - great little car!

Then I did a 'double' stupid and bought a second lower mileage one in some kind of weird 'I can run two of them for a laugh' cheap car buying binge.

Looking for any recommendations for an honest, reasonable local(ish) garage that knows their way around cars to keep on top of any work.

Didn't pay a lot for them at all and so not worth taking them to any dealers, the garage I used to use is proper old school and so looking for a place that is somewhere in between and has some vague interest in more interesting motors...

Any help/recommendations around the WSM/Bristol/North Somerset area appreciated.

Thanks, Tuan.

I've used Dave Flew Automotive a few times, he's just outside WSM.

He rebuilt my Accord Type R after the head gasket went, reasonable price but more importantly a proper thorough job, the car came back stronger then ever before.

Thanks for the reply Matt.

Had a little internet stalk and Dave sounds like the perfect chap. I'm thinking my local dirty MOT centre can take care of the oil/filter stuff (if it's even worth them doing that) and Dave can look at the more interesting tire, brake, suspension stuff.

I'll give him a call and mention you.

Thanks Tuan.
