Title: VW Specialist Essex
Post by: Glenh on 20 April 2004, 14:58
Hi All.

Have done a search here but cannot seem to find an Independent VW specialist in the Essex area. Preferably Chelmsford'ish. I have just got a 1989 GTi 8V MK2 and am just looking to have a service and it generally checked over.

Any ideas greatly appreciated  ;) .

Oh and hello :-* .

Thanks.

Glenh

ps. apologies if this is in the wrong place  :o ;D

Hi Vicky.

Thanks for the welcome  ;) . To be honest it was a bit rude as I should have introduced myself but I just came straight in with a thread  :-[ . I'm from Essex so can't help it ;D  ;D .

OK I'll give them guys a pm.

Thanks.

Glen  :)

You could try Euro car parts in the deals and discount section, might be a main dealer part though. By the way, hello, looks like you are already chatting up the ladies of the forum  ;D

Hi gazza.

I took it to this guy courtesy of Speedydub (you know the girl with the alcohol problem  ;) :D ):

Guy in Wickford called Nick. His number is 07769 954099.

He seemed like an OK guy as it goes. Same here, he kept chatting away ;D .

Thanks for the recommendation of the other guy though and yes it seems your other post didn't upload  ??? .
