Hi All,

Can anyone help me find a local (30 minute drive)repair shop around Blacktown as I need to get a few repairs done ( brakes, speedo cable, rocker gasket...)in a 1986 mini and get a blue slip ( currently Vic plates)

I have called mini spare & repairs at Castle Hill for awhile but no one answers, has anyone used truck stuff in Merrylands or is Allan's in Penrith still open.

Happy to get the few repairs done and go somewhere else for the blue slip. But want a good mechanic who can give the car a full once over.

Cheers,
Top

Me too. Literally just picked mine up today. Blue slip all sorted and few repairs and tune up too.
Brilliant guy, and car runs like a dream now.
