Hi everyone,

We're all always looking for value for money, especially when it comes to people working on our pride and joy.

My miggies engine warning light came on, then after 3 miles it was running absolutely horribly so I had to abandon it in a hotel car park. Unfortunately I don't trust garages much after having bad diagnoses by mechanics that are supposed experts.

I put in a call to Darth Loo-knee who i didn't know, but had been recommended and at his earliest chance(day & a half) he travelled the massive journey (really) to where my car was, taking with him potential pieces to fix it, but if not he was able to tow the car all the way back to his workshop.

After plugging the computer into the car he was able to diagnose the fault, unfortunately the nearest replacement part was about 80 miles away, which he thankfully went and got, keeping me posted all the time about what was happening.

After the part was fitted, the car started perfectly - problem solved.

He even stopped me from spending money on the car by getting unnecessary work done by him as it wasn't needed.

To sum up, Darth Loo-knee  really helped me out when I wasn't sure what I was going to do. He's really approachable & doesn't talk down to you, even with my limited knowledge & had all angles covered. I also couldn't have been happier with the size of the bill after all the effort he put in.

So if you're someone that can't afford vauxhall prices, can't physically do the work yourself, can't find the time to do the work or just don't want to, then my recommendation would be to look no further.

P.s. I may be guffing on, but all this has just happened today & my Miggy has come back to life
