Is there a mobile mechanic that wants to do my cam belt/rollers/pump...ect on my 8v 1986? I have fired her up but I don't want to risk it again as the parts are 20 years old  Was going to book it into a local Independent but with a few other small issues (clutch on the floor) it's probably easier to repair it where it is? It is in the dry and right by an electrical socket so it's not all up hill...lol Love to hear from anyone who has the remotest interest in doing it, call me on 07714220491 |

Might be easier to get your car picked up and taken to your indie |

It's not like I need the car but it would be nice to get over a few hurdles and it would be nice not to have it parked in someone else's yard for 6 months if it doesn't have to be... |

Hi  I dont think I would trust my Porsche to a mobile mechanic unless they KNEW Porsches..... I know a couple down here in Bournemouth, and they are nice guys who do my other directors Astra and Focus, but not a Porsche... All the best Brett

All the best Brett I know what your saying Brett but I do consider this to be Porsche country around where I live so I just thought I'd try my luck and put it out there

There's rarely a day that goes by when he hasn't tweeted a photo at 10pm of him working on an engine or cutting out rust, obviously puts in long hours. |

He was my first choice but thats the guy I asked nearly 6 months ago, been down there a few times but I don't like being pushy and he hasn't got back to me... |
