Car Garage Recommendation please

I would recommend Reg and Paul Shires at Dulwich Test, now in the Tyrrell Road industrial site. They have looked after my family's cars for the last 30 years and counting. Very fair and honest. And expert. https://good-garage-guide.honestjohn.co.uk/garages/d/dulwich-test-service-centre/

Not in mine either! That said, I do think they know what they're talking about.

This is calling for recommendations of where to go, not who to avoid,


Statements such as " Avoid Turners. Rip off merchants!!" could be viewed as defamation. And for balance they score pretty well on Google reviews: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Turners+garage+dulwich#lrd=0x487603bc2f92f879:0xc4bb1c94501de287,1,,,


Me - went to Pitstop in Upland Road and was happy http://www.pitstoprepairs.com/ Google reviews decent


For decades I went to Oly Autos in Loughborough Junction and have no problems with continuing except that Pitstop in more local. https://olyautos.co.uk/ Got to know Oly and his son pretty well, and went next door to Gordon Grove Garage for my MOT's, sadly the gent Peter who did these for decades passed a couple of years ago,

Exactly what Penguin68 said. Including 30 years of looking after my family cars and always fair, honest expert. Also the cleanest and tidiest garage ever.

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
