Need to get my car checked out and MOTed but don't know where to start in terms of finding a decent garage. The only local one we have made a complete balls up of my girlfriend's camper van. Is there a decent website that reviews local garages? Or does anyone know of a decent one in North London. Near Crouch End/Finsbury Park?
Any tips welcome!
There is a fair garage scheme thing going on which garages can apply to become part of the scheme.
I used a garage in my teens tho and they ripped me off a few times by mis-diagnosing and fixing the wrong faults, etc so I wouldnt read anything in to any of those schemes.
The one I use now was recomended by the other halves Dad and have used them now for about 7 years and totally trust them.
Do you know anyone who can recomend you a garage?
presume you dont have anything 'unsual' ?
Ie Alfas are best left to Alfa specialists
It's a nice and simply Citroen Berlingo...
Not many of my London mates drive, so no recommendations up here.
If in an unfamiliar place, e.g. you've moved house, this is useful

i've used 2 garages from the good garage scheme. both have been good (both were also garages, but that doesn't really need re-stating 😉 )

OP, Lancaster Garage in Enfield have a really good rep. Me and several mates use them.
thanks el shamilo,
Just tried it and looks likea good site. Have booked into a local garage who sounded very friendly.....
Might be worth posting for a reccomendation on www.honestjohn.co.uk ?
i have come to the conclusion that DIY is the way to go.
