Russell Automotive are good. Don't think you need MRC for a 45K?

Odd. Would still recommend. They've always been good to me. Been going there for five years now. Only downside is they don't have DRC equipment.

Have you called around dealership for quotes? You may be surprised.

Hi there,

I might be a little late on this post regarding an Independent garage in North London but I just wanted to agree with River Rat
