the bloke who looks after my cars is called Lloyed and he's situated near city road he works for himself and he's a top bloke....if you want his number pm me and i'll pass it on.

Try Graham Motors at Handsworth, honest and reliable. Charges going rate but will tell you honestly if a job doesn't need doing. We've used him for twenty years and never had a complaint.

Thanks for that, which word shall I search for

I have used Victoria Motors at Stocksbridge for the last 4 years and they are really good. They have looked at my car brakes, fixed winscreen wiper etc., and not even charged me. Nothing is too much trouble, I would definitely recommend them.

Try Lancaster and Maw near the Acorn pub at the top of Burncross. They have been in business over 30 years, all the locals use them and they are as honest as the day is long.

M&E motors, Melvin is a star. Heeley bottom area near the ice rink.

Tell him Nick wth the black FTO recomended you.

:D

Depends what you want doing, if it's spray work then i'd recomend Hillfoot motors on neepsend lane, but if it's mechanical then i'd say Aycliff motors on attercliff road....

Hi,

The garage near Edmund street called Tyres something or other... behind St Marys gate is really good.

Don't look for work and were really good.

Lloyds a good bloke. I also like DL Autos on Rutland Road. Very helpful and friendly, and will try very hard to help any situation.

Try Top Tread Tyres on St Mary's Road. They are always great with me.

Southey Green Garage (my regular and local garage)
Southey Green Road
(opposite co-op):thumbsup:

I'm 100% happy with them.:) <that's me being 100% happy!!!!

Try Rutland Autos...ask for Stewart or Rodney...Stewart for auto work and Rodney for bodywork and spraying.
I once worked for a car parts company :o we supplied parts to some of the places mention in this thread. OMG if only you could see the quality of some of these components.

Century Motors in Hillsborough.

Did my MOT and it passed without all the often unnecessary work you associate with one.

Burnscross Garage in Burncross. Trevor is a proper honest gent and was so good with my dad I took my car. Im quite handy and know how long stuff takes and costs and when I workd out how much money it cost him for bits was stumped how he makes any money.

i wouldnt use a general garage and prefer someone who specialise in the brand so he knows whats the faults and where to get parts cheap, how does a general mechcanic know the common fault on you make of car?

Is that the chap off sky edge?

I 2nd that.............:thumbsup:

Snuff Mill Garage on Ecclesall Road, used them for years.

kingsport in sheffield near dancing dollar a guy called jay that owns it. very nice chap whos a perfectionist with his work and is very busy due to this fact. i always take my car there.

I'd say Southey Green Garage as well.

For any tyre or alloy needs come to us - we often send folk away who thought they needed a full set of new tyres but really only need 1 or 2. Some of the big chains it seems routinely tell people (especially ladies) that they need more work doing than is necessary.

Thorncliffe Garage on the Thorncliffe indusrial estate in Chapeltown they are great.

Erm because he is a mechanic?!?! and they train to know. He gets his cheap parts from the place I get my cheap parts which give you the option of genuine parts or another brand!

Thorncliffe Garage on the Thorncliffe indusrial estate in Chapeltown they are great.

I'd second that. A good sign is that they are always busy, but will get you in asap.

Wern't that great for this local that used them once!

Thorncliffe Garage on the Thorncliffe indusrial estate in Chapeltown they are great.

I second that. Used to use them for our cars when lived at Chapeltown. Very reasonable and never ripped us off. They're a great bunch of guys. The company, my then husband, worked for even took their vans there for servicing/MOT'ing on our recommendation.

When we live in Sheffield (up to sept 2003) I used newhall motors as it was close to work, and they were (IMHO) honest and reliable.

:thumbsup: :clap: just depends on witch side of the city you live but at the top of east bank road just as it levels out there is a jet petol station called pearl motor's sure that you wont go for wrong with them ask for steve :hihi:

Don't use challenger on Rutland road i took my uncles car there for a new exhaust and they said i needed a full one a couple of hundred pound so i took it to charlie browns at hillsborough opposite wednesday ground it only needed back part approx £101 vg job., also i use grahams at edmund road they don't rip you off

Town Edge Garage.
01142722338

Ask for Joe Harrison.

Valley Road garage at Meersbrook. Used that place for 15 years and he does not rip you off.

Century Motors in Hillsborough.

Aye, been to the guys (through the Century Motor's forecourt) for Bodywork repairs/upgrades this past month. Found out about them via the Ford Focus Owners club and they come highly recommended.

Mark (owner) is a top bloke - does MOT's and more, definitely worth speaking to and it's where I'll be going first sign of any problems with my motor.

Robert Brown on Station Road at Ecclesfield. He is very reasonable, easy to discuss things with and does a really good job of work. I have been going to him for quite some time.

Hughes and Briddock on Burton Street.

and they do MOT's
