R.I.P MacLennan Automotive

[Bugle]

So

Where to get the GT looked after now? Anyone in the CBD out to Jville that comes recommended?

[GC8E2DD]

If you can go a bit past JVille to Grenada North, then Macbilt would be my recommendation. There is always Ichi Ban in the Hutt if he has time, but that is a lot further away.

Macbilt, Number 1 cashew street i think.

My works also down the road if you need powder coating done while you have your car worked on ;D

[Mutsuraboshi]

I got a letter from Maclennans a few weeks ago informing me of their decision to close. In the letter they suggested Ray Hartley Motors for any future servicing needs on the subaru. Apparently RH Motors took over/brought all of MacLennans equipment when they shut.

[Bugle]

Yeah got that to, Automotive 'and appliance' repair..?

I'll give them a crack failing any other recommendations (warrant due on Thursday...) but keep the suggestions coming!

Its a little further to come see me out here in the Hutt

but will guarantee to be way cheaper than those city shops

Anyone can PM me and arrange a time for me to sort out your car

Cheers Rick

Cheers all

I'll give Ray a crack to get her warranted due to the time constraints (ie tomorrow...) then it looks like Ichi Ban/Rick for anything else after that

Three hundred odd bucks for a warrant, couple of suspension bushes and weld job on a holey exhaust...

Whaaaaaaaaaaaa

which bushes, replacing them is labour intensive, most labour is charged at $80/hour...

So $40 for warrant

$180 for two hours labour on bushes + cost of bushes

$80 labour and consumables for welding up

pretty goodish to me

Sad to see Macleannans go. It was a Wellington institution.

Out at STM (Speedtech Motorsport) we are always keen to help. We can do WOF, tuning, servicing, WOF repairs.

Would love to see more Club Sub members through the doors. Oh and our labour rate is $70+GST per hour. We have also developed the "Pricing Promise" which you can read about here: http://www.speedtechnz.com/About/Support/Pricing+Promise.html
