Bongo friendly garage Purbeck area
Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2014 2:46 pm
Hi, does anyone know of a Bongo friendly garage or mobile mechanic near the Purbeck area of Dorset? - Wareham/Swanage
Poole is not too far and I know of RD Motors, Hamworthy (near Imperial Cars). So far I have only used them to check over the Bongo when I bought it and they seemed helpful and friendly. They are Bongo specialists, but I don't know if they are very expensive or not. Has anyone else had experience of them? I understand that you may not be able to comment on here if your experience was negative, but in that case perhaps you can pm me.
I read on here somewhere that there is a mobile mechanic in Corfe Mullen, but I may be too far away for him unless I can take the Bongo to him.
For the last 2 years I have been using a garage called Rentech in Holton Heath Industrial Estate for MOT and servicing. Renault specialists but they seem very good, and excellent value MOT (<£40). I think they do a lot of vans, being on an Industrial Estate, but whether that has any bearing on being good with Bongos - I have no idea.
Reading about the Bongo coolant system on here, draining etc. makes me wonder if I should go to a Bongo specialist. Either that, or I'll have to find a tactful way of asking Rentech if they have experience of this. I can hardly suggest they watch a You Tube video - don't want to offend them!! Being female I tend to worry about being ripped off although I can manage to sound a bit technical if I have an inkling of what a problem might be
