Be VERY ware if you feel inclined to use this outfit. I suggest you google them first, read the section from East Sussex Trading Standards, the list of injunctions and CCJs against them.
i took my Range Rover there 2 years ago with loss of power problems. They diagnosed a defective turbo. It took 4 weeks and a bill of about £3000 to "fix" the problem. It still had the same loss of power problem. The chap there suggested changing the fuel pump and other parts, but having been charged 40 HOURS labour to change a turbo, I wasn't impressed. also the bonnet sprang up on a journey abroad.
I took the car back there to have a new bonnet cable fitted. £250.
To cut a long story short, I eventually took the car to Terrain Vehicles at Bexhill who tried swapping the fuel pump and other bits, but the original problem persisted. They changed the turbo, and hey presto, problem gone. but, the "new" bonnet cable broke!
I contacted an independant engineer who produced a scathing report on the job done by Northiam 4 wheel Drive Centre. they had overcharged by as much as 30 hours to change the turbo; the turbo was probably the original, cleaned up and refitted, the waste gate valve was not new, and was probably the only cause of the original problem. the bonnet cable was not new.
I sent a copy of his report to my credit card company who agreed to refund a good proportion of the bill, so a result there.
As for Trading Standards, they could instigate the injunction against Northiam 4 wheel Drive Centre and its owner, Robert Ashbee and others, but chose not to. The man ought to be jailed for ripping people off.
