Is he in Ranlagh?

It really would have to be in South Co Dub, Id need to be nearby to pick/drop off my son to school and maybe drag him along when I need to pick the car up.

Sorry to be a pain!

I used to get my car serviced in Sandford Garage, on Sandford Road.
( in between Ranelagh and Clonskeagh )

Posted the details here before and someone else was happy with them.

If the Churchtown area is suitable, I would suggest Winton motors on Landscape road.

I have been going there for the past four years and received good service.
(What persuaded me was when I had a small problem with the car with a switch/warning light, I took it to him to get fixed and as it was around due for a service (based on time from last service, but not mileage), I said he may as well do a service too, but after I dropped in the car, he contacted me confirming the issue with the switch saying he had a look and the car did not require servicing at that stage and I would be as well holding on a while before getting the service done. So he got my business from then on).

None of those garages suit

The guy I went to ealier int he year charges is about 250 a service..is this about right?

(Problem I went to him was baout was my suspension was hanging off - totally unrelated, but he seems good...just high price for the service!)

Can you be more specific on what part of South Co. Dublin does suit? It will probably help with the recommendations
