    Hi all,

    I had a search for previous threads but they seemed quite old.

    I am looking for any recommendations for a bit of work that needs doing to my Skoda Superb. I am based in the Sandyford Area and unfortunately have had bad experiences with two automotive chains already so now I am at the stage where I want to go the independent route if possible.

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Only about 15 mins down the M50 from Sandyford, I'd recommend Pat Driver in Kilmancanogue. We've had plenty of cars, high and low end, looked after by him and never had an issue with the work.

    Well there are a few good independent lads around there. One specifically deals with German stuff. As for a certain chain of big yellow 'garages', I wouldn't even let them balance a wheel. AVOID.

    Thanks for this - I will give him a shout and see what the story is so. :)

    Any idea who the guy is that deals with the German makes?

    Sorry, that's Jules Chambers/Chambers performance. Google him for his number, haven't got it to hand.

    He's based just off the South bound lane of the N11 that runs via Kilmacanogue, almost opposite the Avoca Handweavers. If you pass Kellys Recovery or Topaz you have gone too far.
