Hi all,

Just wondering if there are any mobile mechanics (or people great with minis) on here or people use in and around Bristol (Warmley area) as would be useful to have one ready in case any issues happen.

I know MiniTec is not too far from me but it would be great to have someone that could come to the house,

I have a garage with light and power sockets (heater) so you would be out of the cold lol,

Any help or pointing in the right direction would be great :)

ps. I will pay for this service lol

What is wrong with it ???

[Pelvisgt]

Well brakes are just working very well and fuelling is a bit off, I was thinking of asking if anyone was a mobile mechanic for the future as would be really useful :)

What's actraly wrong with the breaks and fueling

[Pelvisgt]

I think the brakes need bleeding but might be the calipers are busted, and it's just runny rich as can smell it a bit and spark plugs are black and have no way to measure it

Its been a while but there was an MG Rover garage in Brislington, they were helpful but i dont know if they do minis anymore.
Other options are minitec and slark (which is a bit away) for the carburation

There's a garage in bristol whos owner is very friendly. Works on a lot of minis. I've had a few repairs done by him and definitely recommend. :) Can't remember the name of the garage or where it is in Bristol. Contact the member called BrAd2012 on here. Hes my mate and will tell you more about the garage.

Hope that helps :)

That's minitec, i replaced your engine mount there

I should add i can't say enough good things about them, Mak certainly knows his stuff

Edit:
P.s.
I live in Bristol and am always happy to help out a fellow mini owner however i can, i have learnt a few things whilst working volentarily at Minitec once a week and i am also regularly in the oldland common/warmley area

No worries

I'm sure we can organise something, it's all a good learning process
