Bongo Fury

Does any-one know of a good reasonably local mobile mechanic, for the Hemel Hempstead area, to look at my Bongo, which has starting problems, that I've been unable to solve. Cheers Tom.

try this guy,he is fully mobile and is excellent with all types of imports,he's the only guy i would trust and i have him come to the northwest to do any major repairs on mine.

The website doesn't give an indication of their operating area Paul. Will they go as far as Hemel Hempstead?

If he'll go from Thurrock to Wigan , Hemel's a walk in the park! (less than an hour's drive)

I have spoken to this chap, and he said he's booked up to the hilt for all of this month and most of next month, so he must be good, but I need our Bongo for the 24th March. He gave me some suggestions that didn't help much, as Allans of Plymouth was talking me through the jobs to do, and he was very helpful. I am putting a new fuel filter on when it arrives from Ian, because the only problem left to solve seems to be fuel problems. Fingers crossed. Thanks to all for your interest and good wishes, I'll kleep you all up to date. Cheers Tom

Yes Allans in Plymouth are great, very helpful.




All the best.

he travels all over the country,even done work in spain while he was there on holiday.
you may know him ian,its buffallobob ,used to be on scrapheap challlenge a while ago,done lots of work on townaces, estimas and bongos,only problem is ,he's so good its very hard to get hold of him and you need to be patient,but he will normally fit you in if he's due in your area,he is just up in whitby today fitting a head,then off to leeds doing 2 cambelts on his way down all in one day.

Wish I knew about him when I live in Brentwood for sixteen years. Drove through South Ockendon many times on my way to Lakeside in preference to using the M25.

Brentwood eh? Did you work in wimmin's undergarments?

Have you been to brentwood dandy? Whereabout did you see a place there making women's undergarments? All that I saw there was flash city types spending their obscene bonuses on flash cars and pink champange. Better ask my big sister about this garment factory of yours she still lives in Brentwood, has been there for around forty years.
By the way I worked at both the PSA and the Home Office in Central London. The job was great but the commuting was hell. Thank god I do not have to get up at half past five in the morning anymore.

I was thinking of Brentford Nylons MG Sorry for the confusion

Remember Alan Freeman advertising them?

Yes a shame, I could use a new pair.
