Bongo Fury

I find him honest, straight forward, very helpful and knowledgable so I am happy to travel from East Lothian. That is not, of course to say there are not other excellent Bongo garages around .. I just like to support someone who has done a great job for me and I like!

In a similar vein I am into motorcycles in a big way and find it hard to go past Andy Minns at Border Bikes in Duns for all the same reasons I take the Bongo to Bill.

Quite a growing crowd of Bongos in Haddington and arround East Lothian these days. I am in the area occassionally, my dad was born at Monksmain cottage in Cockmilane Brae and is now burried in a plot in the cemetery down the road together with his parents and my mother.

I too got my Bongo from Japanese Auto Locators 5½ yars ago but have never been to Bill's at Campercaft. He was not in business at the time as far as I knew so I used to take my Bongo down to Wheelquick in Wigan which is not far from my sister's place. These days I have trained a local mechanic and a few Bongo Fury members to do all the hard work for me.
