I do know of a small garage/mechanic in the Stockport area if that's any good to you, who I would recommend all day long. Although he has not done any notable work on my Capri (as I've been able to do so myself for the most part so far), I have taken other cars to him. He's good, reliable, takes care with the car and very honest. He often has classic cars in though, as well as modern. At times, he's put my car up on the ramps and told me what the problem is and what I need to do if I wish to sort it myself, for nothing.

He does do recovery/call outs, so worth a try. Feel free to mention Paul with the red Capri if you should phone him.

Yeah, what's up? Might be able to recommend a couple of people nearby.
