Donaldsons VW, Yorkhill Quay 0141 339 0077

Very good service and prices, my car dropped a valve and they done a repair and rebuild of the cylinder head for £300. Car now runs better than ever.

They seem to know all VW's including Corrados and VR6's well.

 

Highly Recommended

Heres a recommendation from Paul up in Aberdeen

 

With the recent topic of over inflated servicing charges (see Bavaria Auto Werke thread) I just thought I'd throw in a recomendation.

 

A friend of mine owns a Garage in Stonehaven called Firstdrive Cars. He has a couple of excellent mechanics who are skilled in all types of German cars and I trusted them with my VR6 for the past 3 years, (and my 3 series convertible before that), when it needed any work done including a head rebuild. His hourly rate is only 22 quid and can usually supply a loan car and will give you a level of service far beyond a stealer.

 

Here are the contact details

 

Owner - Paul Mackie

Firstdrive Cars

01569 766766

07801 856901

 

 

I hope this will benefit a few of you.

 

Cheers

Paul G

 

 

 

And ill confirm that the car was very well looked after as its now mine. :D

From skid in Aberdeen.

 

If anybody is willing to travel,like i have done in the past

STAR PERFORMANCE in Glenrothes certainly becomes top of my list everytime.

 

Jim Curley and son Brian are first class.

Even if it`s advice over the phone the lads go out their way to help. :D

 

A first stop for every Corrado (or vw) owner in bonnie Scotland

Full details in this thread...

...but to sum up, very friendly, good service & honest (I think very good value too). He also tightened a track rod for free becuase it was potentially dangerous. He got my business just for that.

 

I took my C in so he could have a look and he put the car up on a jack thing, stood under it and he showed me what he was talking about and explained what needed to be done (including what would happen if left). I took it in on the Saturday and managed to get it booked in for the Wednesday.

 

Also, Elite Wheels and Tyres deserve a mention for their help too (details on http://www.elitewheels.co.uk). I might give their alloy wheel refurb a go when I have some spare cash... you can get a courtesy set too whilst they're being done. I think he said that they send them away on a Tuesday, return them for Friday (or something like that).

Can anyone tell me where to find a really helpful garage to see to my G60 in East Sussex as I don't want anyone taking a look at her but at the same time I need some help.

Cheers

Have a word with John (16VG60)... He's sorted me out with more bits than I care to remember, is highly recommended by people here, is a full time mechanic (VAG,or at least Ex-VAG, IIRC) and generally a top bloke... 8)
