Reliable Mechanics

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a reliable mechanic who could service my car at a reasonable price. I have used Kwik Fit in Lewisham for the past 2 years, and often feel like I am being ripped off with the "added work" i am told i need for the car to pass an MOT.


My friend has suggested finding a reliable and honest mechanic in the East Dulwich/Forest Hill area to try for my next visit instead of going to Kwik Fit. So whether it?s a knowledgeable ?home mechanic? or a garage, I welcome the idea.


I very much look forward to hearing from some trustworthy mechanics or receiving some recommendations of people I could approach.

I used these guys for years. Well Reg anyway.Paul came and went. I even bought two cars from them. I decided not to go back when they charged me a huge amount to fix a wing mirror. I miss the rapport I had with Reg but they didn't bother to reply to a letter I wrote to them after the 'misunderstanding'.

My family have been using Andrews for years.....I believe my uncle still takes his van there regularly and thats got close to 280,000 miles on it so must be doing something write :))


I use a mobile mechanic called Dave Lervine for my old Polo - very reliable and trustworthy - 07956410883.

I tried Jack the Polish mobile mechanic yesterday, and I would definitely recommend him. I had a problem starting my car, and he was able to come out the same afternoon. He found the source of the problem and fixed it right there. He used to work at the garage on Rosendale Rd, and has gone out on his own. He was a fraction of the price I would have had to pay to call out green flag who wanted to charge a GBP94.50 call out fee just to come and jump start it and take it to a garage!

His details are: JF Auto. Pre MOT Checks, Breakdown Assistance, Car diagnostic, Air conditioning.

I have used these mechanics since I got my car in 2006. They are excellent mechanics, reliable, reasonable and honest ... what more could you ask for?

    • Direct link (sorry duplicated!):  Today, more than 30 states from around the world will gather in Bogotá, Colombia, for the “Emergency Conference” to halt the Gaza genocide: the most ambitious multilateral response since Israel began its campaign of devastation two years ago. Bringing together a broad coalition of governments — from Algeria to Brazil, China to Spain, Indonesia to Qatar — the conference aims, in the words of Colombian President Gustavo Petro, “to move from condemnation to collective action.” At 10:30 Bogotá, 11:30 New York, 16:30 London and 17:30 Paris, we invite you to join this historic gathering's opening ceremony live from the Colombian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You will hear testimony from Dr. Thaer Ahmed, who will recount his experience of working in Rafah and Khan Younis amidst Israel’s genocide. Rosa Yolanda Villavicencio, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Colombia, will detail her government’s concrete commitments to uphold international law. After she was sanctioned by the Trump administration, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese will deliver a powerful message about the failure of the international system to protect the Palestinian people — and urge immediate and coordinated action by principled states. “Here in Bogotá, a growing number of states have the opportunity to break the silence and revert to a path of legality by finally saying: enough. Enough impunity. Enough empty rhetoric. Enough exceptionalism. Enough complicity,” Albanese will say. Today, the call from Bogotá will echo around the world. Join us. In solidarity,  The Progressive International Secretariat
