Default North Shore Mechanic/Garage

Hi does anyone know of a good reliable garage/mechanic on the north shore. We are in Milford at the moment and our renault has a problem with over reving, we took it to Michies (takapuna) who had it for 3 hours and didn't have a clue ....

Not dealt with any on the coast but we use a guy in Albany. It's my boss's brother. I'll grab all details on Monday and let you know. If not, I'll ask at work to see if they know anybody up here, they've used in the past or know of......

Here you go, Ian

Barnetts Panel and Paint, in Albany. Ring 415 8488 and ask for Henry. Tell him you know me and that I work for Marcel and he'll sort you out.

Cheers
Paul
