Title: Newcastle NSW help/advice
Post by: extraball on June 17, 2013, 07:17:32 PM
Hi, I am looking at buying my first euro car, and have decided that a 2001 to 2005 147 manual twinspark will fit into my budget, and has all the features I want. Now, most of the cars for sale on the net are due, or almost due a major service, around 120ks, or more. I have had 2 quotes in Newcastle for 2500 for this cambelt, timing belt, water pump service. Can someone recommend me a repairer that is cheaper, but good in Newcastle? Thus far, I have tried the well-known cardiff, and wickham repairers for quotes. Also if you know of a 147 manual for sale, send me a PM pls.
Thanks 8)
