mitchg911 Member 22 Member For: 16y 23d Posted 13/08/10 06:35 AM Share Posted 13/08/10 06:35 AM hi, im after some advice from our brisbane members, my brother lives in mitchelton and has just picked up a neat bf xr6T. Unfortunately he has minimal mechanical knowledge and less tools. Im interested if anyone knows a reliable mechanic for typical service type work around the mitchelton area? Im in sydney so I cant be much help to him on a regualr basis, but if anyone knows someone reliable that is genuine and not a rip off could you please post up some contact details? I suggested elite automotive, but someone closer for some basic work would be greatthanks in advancemitch Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/69959-mechanic-in-brissy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are always busy if that's a good sign. But yet to try them myself so can't give a personal recommendation.

bluprinturbo Donating Members 605 Member For: 17y Gender: Male Location: brisbane Posted 15/08/10 09:50 AM Share Posted 15/08/10 09:50 AM rdp isnt what it used to be. with leerentveld gone, things are on the up and up. the boys there know the reputation he created. its not there fault. they werent running the show. time will tell I guess. I went a different direction after being f*cked around by steve. being just up the road is another deciding factor. havnt had any luck with anyone else, so why not.

Johnny G Team Grandpa Qualified Donating Members 809 Member For: 20y 2m 28d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane North. Posted 15/08/10 10:47 AM Share Posted 15/08/10 10:47 AM Mitch - if he wants simple services done reliably, McLean Motors at Queens Road, Everton Hills is ok (ex racer Cameron McLean), and the guys at Everton Mechanical Repairs on Timms Road, Everton Hills are absolute Ford nuts - their model car collection has to be seen to be believed. We still take the family cars there and have been treated very well and never had an issue. Then you get up into the well known tuning and servicing specialists.... Power Torque is at Brendale (as Tab said), and RDP are a bit further on on the peninsula. Depends on what he's after....... good luck.
