The guy in Plumpton Green (Premier Garage) is terrific. Very reasonable price and thorough.

Do you need a mobile mechanic? I know of a decent one, not too expensive and very thorough.

Barry at BMS Autos in Barcombe is the best mechanic I've ever used and has the best service too. Can collect broken vehicles and will provide a courtesy car if needed. I can't recommend him more highly really.....

All I'd say is avoid the Busy Bee garage in Ringmer. I know it seems every second car in Lewes has one of their stickers in the back window but I have no idea why as they're dodgy.

Another vote for Nigel at Ringmer Service Centre. Always get good service at a fair price, and they don't find "extra" stuff that needs doing.

Also, try Tim Sharp in Kingston or his brother Ben at Diplocks Insdustrial Estate in Ringmer. Both excellent, and won't muck you around.

Barry not well equipped? I might just mention your name to him Mr Pan.

Earlier this year I went to North Street Garage to enquire about tyres for my 44 year old car. They did not laugh me out of the office: but explained in great detail all about modern tyre sizes and profiles, and gave me a quote. I have not used the car much in these austere times, and only now have returned to buy the tyres.
They were ordered immediately for fitting this week; at a higher price but still less than a local national chain quoted today.
Once again I have the satisfaction of using a local shop.
