    Can anyone recommend anywhere local?
    I'm wary of using chains like Halfords or is that unfounded?

    I use Kwikfit, find them to be reasonable enough.

    I've used Unity Garage for years. Family run, fair and friendly. Members of the Good Garage Scheme. A635 Claycliffe Road, between Aldi and Barugh Green roundabout. They have their own website if you want to check them out.

    Lilac Garage at Brierley, chap called Chris Little. My dad used him for 25 years, I've followed on. He's moved from the original location on Church Street to a place just the other side of what was the Three Horseshoes Pub. Both mine and the wife's car go there for servicing and we try and do it around MOT time so he effectively prepares them for that (if anything needs doing). Never had a big bill from him. 01226 714697
