Default Mechanic to change belts, North East.

I need a mechanic to change the belts on my V6 and some other jobs.



I've used a garage which seems to be on Honest John's site now, and won't be going there again.


Turbo Dave is often mentioned in tones reserved for Saints, but never how to contact him. There was a mention of a garage in York recently but I can't find it.


Thanks in advance. Pete

On the subject of garages...

I've heard a lot of positive comments re. Turbo Dave. I'm in Stockton-on-Tees, which isn't too far away, but I'm slightly nervous of the logistics: it's not exactly somewhere I can drive past on my way to work, or walk there to pick my car up. Maybe if I had a low-loader...

Anyone got any recommendations which are actually in the Stockton or Middlesbrough area? Or is that too much of a wish?
