Car trouble

Postby Jo Jo » Sat Sep 28, 2013 9:24 am

I have a warning light on my Toyota RAV4 which I drove here from the UK. Can anyone recommend a garage that I can get it looked at. I am due to drive it back to England next month and don't want to risk it but it can be hard enough finding a trust worthy garage in the UK
and I have no clue here.

I have a mobile mechanic. When I arrived here and found that I had a dud battery he came out, brought a new one and sorted it out for me. He is English, too!!

Yes, if you mean the one in Benimar, almost opposite the BP garage?
It used to be run by a charming Belgian lady (Marisa?) and her Spanish husband, but they may have moved-on by now as it was several years ago that they 'converted' the rear lights on my RHD Focus, and did a few other jobs, all for a very good price, and completely reliably.
I drove-by today, incidentally, and wondered if they are still there ... the only car I could see in the showroom as I passed was a Suzuki!
Good luck.

Hi, we used the garage in quesada, first opening on the left under the arch,lovely guys in there, totally honest, quoted us 400 for a Spanish exhaust, or if we could wait 200 to get one over from Britian, highly recommend xx
