A week ago our 1996 Elite Estate failed the MOT for a failed rear shock and a stern advisory "Dangerous to drive" for oil dripping onto the hot exhaust manifolds from the Cam Covers.

A couple of PMs and phone calls were exchanged with ElitePete and early on Saturday morning we dropped the car off . Just a few hours later we collected the car - what a transformation. The new self leveling shocks and non smoking engine bay made for a much more pleasant drive home. The car sailed through the retest first thing Monday morning.

All parts were supplied at Trade Club prices with a very reasonable labour charge for nearly a days work, we had never met before Saturday but Pete approached the job like we had been friends for years.

I will certainly be returning to Pete for the Cambelt and waterpump change in the very near future, he is a credit to OOF - Top Bloke & Top Job.  :y  :y  :y

Glad your car is sorted. Well done again Pete  :y
