240 General: Recommended Garage (East London)

[ktz]

Hi all,

Reluctantly, I am thinking of taking my 240GL Estate to the garage. I've was very keen to get all the work done on the car myself and had started to (with the help from some on this forum) nail down some of what ailed it. Recently I've done my back in and it's not really getting better at pace. That coupled with the fact that the car is now salvaged (repairable) due to being hit by a lorry whilst parked, a visit to a garage now seems inevitable.

It may be a lost cause and I may have to break it up (would be sad), but wanted to ask first if there were any community recommended garages in or close to East London that others have used. I have a garage about 5 houses down from me, but he has already told me he doesn't know much about the older Volvos and I would rather really go to someone who has experience with them.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I've been combing the stickies and searching the threads, but haven't come up with any preexisting thread, so apologies if I missed it.

Best,
Joel
