[Wanted] Recommedations for Independent Mechanic/Garage near

I am looking for recommendations for an independent mechanic/garage to look after my D3.

I live near Reading, so someone in Reading/Newbury/Basingstoke area.

Urgently need to get cambelts done and also get EPB checked as it started squealing, so I stopped using it as I have an automatic.

I don't want to use my normal garage so looking for someone else to use who is not going to charge the earth/dealer prices.

Hoping I am not asking for the impossible.

I've used Rovertune before and they certainly know their stuff but you can have problems getting a booking as they are always very busy.

Also try Nick kerner 4x4 in Maidens Green.

Didn't realise there were many people kicking round Berks/Oxon/Hants area.

Feel like we should have some sort of mini-meet Disco gone Sad
