RiddingsRam Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Seeing as though one of the first discussions that comes up in the pub is work . I thought because we kind of all spend that much time in each others company it would be interesting too see what other forum members do for work . I'll start and keep it brief . I'm a vehicle technician (in old terms mechanic) I work for ford motor company and have done for approx 13 years . It's OK has it moments but generally a good job and work with a good bunch of lads .

I'm a teacher, but more importantly can you recommend a trustworthy garage for an MOT and service? (I have an 04 c-max with full ford history is it worth paying ford dealer prices or going independent) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all roughly £40 some might do it for £30 , but avoid fast fit centres there renowned for being a bit keen . * edited * sorry didn't see the service part too , we as a ford dealer offer a quite popular motor craft minor service (£125) combined with an mot (£30) so £155 all in .
