Service centre SW London now that VW Heston is closed?

Post by mhowood »

Hi,
my 1998 VW T25 was previously maintained by VW Heston. It was brilliant having a specialist service centre so close!
Sadly they closed at the end of last year.
I've tried a few garages locally and they don't want to touch a 30 year old vehicle, and we're now in need of a service and MOT.
There is Jacks Garage but that's central London, and I assume Notting Hill prices.

Wondering if anyone on the forum lives in or near Twickenham and can recommend an alternative?
Thanks!

Jacks Garage lowered my Van years ago. I found the work to be ok, though usual London prices+VAT!

Though, I know some (non T25 VW friends, beetles and T2's), they were not overally impressed with the work at Jacks!

Yikes - just saw this. Many apologies. Didn't get a notification. :oops:
Ended up going to Beetlelink in the end. Will definitely check out the bloke in Wraysbury come MOT time.
