Recommendations for a mechanic in N8.

[Philip Wigg]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a decent mechanic in Crouch End/Hornsey?

I have tried Kwik Fit for my MOT and service but unfortunately they didn't do a great job although they made good efforts to rectify the problems they caused.

Basically I just want someone that is competent and won't try to rip me off.

Thanks,

Phil.

If you walk down the side of Kwik Fit (to the right as you look at it) past Bubbles the car wash, you come to a tiny office on the left of MEB which is run by Gerard. I have been going there for years for services for my car and for my daughter's. My daughter's Fiat always has problems with its screen washers and the MoT test, but MEB always  does just enough to achieve the pass.

There is a debate going on at the moment about the future of the buildings which house these three businesses. The owners of the site want to demolish them and put up far too much housing and more shops, the three businesses want to continue in business. We are currently awaiting the outcome of an appeal to the planning inspector .

MEB gives a discount on the MoT to holders of the Crouch End Card

Thanks very much for the recommendation, I will give him a try.
