Knightrider 1 Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Preciate not in Kent, but JMR (John Mitchell Racing) is a seriously knowledgeable and respected engineering shop in Littlehampton. He specialises in Corrados - he has an immaculate and very special G60, but he also is an expert on VR6s. He has a loan car available. He is a good diagnostic guy but tends to want to replace everything that isn't 100% even if it is working fine at 70%, bit of a perfectionist, so you need to be cautious as to what really, really does need replacing. For about £90 he does a full assessment of a car (Rado or Golf) with a detailed written report. Quite useful to know where you are with your car. Link to post Share on other sites
