Reliable mechanic in Glasgow
Hi folks
Recently just moved to Glasgow and wondering if there are any recommended mechanics you would trust to work on Elises/Vx's.
Used to go to Ali at SLS but thats a bit out of the way now

Re: Reliable mechanic in Glasgow
JJ used to rate drivers and i think some people have gone to a guy in Hillington, but most Weegie's make the treck to SLS AFAIK
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.
....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?

Gerry at performancetek did a few jobs on my honda elise and was spot on. http://www.performancetek.co.uk
I initially went to see him because of the honda specialist thing, but really he just knows sh!tloads about cars and is a good mechanic. Worth a shout. I see he has also just finished building his K20 powered Jazz so a bit of work on an elise is not going to be a problem.

Re: Reliable mechanic in Glasgow
Cairnlea wont take a VX im afraid - i asked last time and david was quite honest
"If you werent in a hurry, you didnt hassle me, i was quiet and it was an easy job then i might consider it" was his response the last time i asked.
Good suggestion of performancetek JJ - just round the corner from me
Gareth you going try him out for me ?

Re: Reliable mechanic in Glasgow
Irvine any use?
Henry Roy 07533017716
He was my West Coast SLS when I stayed in Glasgow: bit of a treck to get there and based on a farm, but good value and knew the car inside out.
