AndyW Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I used a little place called VW Rescue for my brake pads earlier in the year. They are based on the edge of Dudley, seemed ok to me. I have the web addy somewhere if you want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TANNER Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Midland VW recently did my 4 year service and cambelt change.They also welded a broken exhaust bracket for me without charge.Although they took alot longer than first stated I think they have done a good job which I dont mind waiting for!I tried VW rescue as its local to me but they did not know that you could get a 1.6 Lupo GTi. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":confused:" border="0" alt="confused.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnycv Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Thanks guys – Its going to be midland VW, the other place gets marked down for not knowing about the Lupo GTi - that’s ok for ATS to say but a specialist VW garage should know their models… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also says 1.6 Lupo GTI on my invoice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poloboy Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 Hello Boys & Girls I have used the rubbish VW Rescue (Wimborne) and I had very bad experience: first of all the charged me extortionate amount of money for very little service (oil change). I wouldn’t even call it a service!!Their knowledge of VW is none existent and found the Staff few very Rude, unhelpful and with limited knowledge of the product they serve! I feel very angry, disappointed and humiliated My advice is NOT to go near them and try any other garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
