Recommended garages in Essex

Hi all,

Can anyone point us in the right direction for a Bongo friendly garage in Essex? Although willing to travel within reason. Need a diagnosis by someone who knows about bongos and a noisy engine.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hi Richdee,

I have not personally used this garage but I'm sure I've seen it recommended on this forum. A.L. Motors, Rayne, Braintree, phone 01376 348305. Hope this helps.

Hi I have used A.L. Motors since I got my Bongo a few years ago. and would recommend them to anyone. One word of warning though is that they are awkward to find, hidden up a back lane on the outskirts of Braintree, but perservere, Zak really knows his Bongo's.

Hi Richdee,
I can recomend A.L. Motors too.
They have serviced my Bongo since I got it and also replced worn items
like bearings/oil seals etc.
They prefer you to get the bits, if the club cannot supply Bongo bits is always a good bet.
They work on quite a few Bongo's now.
Very pleased with them.
Just don't call Lac, "Zac"

Sorry Ginge.

Thanks Johnnybee and Ginge we have decided to have a trip to that neck of the woods this saturday.

Its always good to have recommendation from others as it puts the mind at rest.

We will let you know how it goes.
