prime drive is mini and suzuki spares, they don't do repairs

You could also try Ivan at mini spares in the hills

or

bugger i can't think of his name now....

A few extras to try, all have good reps.

Cheers

Aaron

In this instance I agree Mini Spares & Repairs in Hoyle Ave Castle Hill would be your best bet. They have an arrangement with an exhaust shop next door (actually directly opposite), so they can do your exhaust and your mini work all on the one spot.

John Leffler is the best for steering/wheel alignments, but a long way to go just for other mechanical work I think.

I live in Plumpton and much of the work that was needed in the past was done by them.

Peter Fogerty at Mortdale, bit of a drive but i think he's the best around bar none.

Oh and Mini Spares at Hoyle ave Castle Hill are good and Ivan seemed pretty confident in the new guy. I'm sure you'll know which rather more northerly located place to avoid though - and if you dont I'm sure several people will be happy to tell you.
