#1: Lowering, Brakes and servicing West Midlands Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Fri Apr 27, 2012 2:25 pm ---- I don't know where this belong so feel free to move it.
Basically my friend is a qualified mechanic and has been involved with working on cars from a young age as his dad runs a garage. I want to spread the word of his services as he does a good job.
To completely lower a 206 including fitting of lowering springs, front and rear dampers and torsion bar adjustment he asks for just £140. He does torsion bars the proper way and none of his work lacks attention to detail or care, literally the only guy I trust to work on my car
He will also work on brakes, servicing, belts, rear axle conversionss etc - if you are interested in any work please PM me, he can travel to locations in the West Mids county or work on his location
Cheers

This.
A local garage charged me £170 to lower my old Corsa, that was a few years back, bet they'd charge £200+ easy now.

Did he?... It was £100 to fit your supplied shocks and springs AND to adjust the torsion bars. £140 still not to bad tho
#11: Re: Lowering, Brakes and servicing West Midlands Author: Dodgernator, Location: Stoke On TrentPosted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 5:54 am ---- What brand of springs and dampers does he recommend for a 1.4
From his experience?

From my own experience with Apex springs and dampers I would not buy them again, glad I got them so cheap. I liked them at first but I've realised the ride is harsh considering its only a mild drop. I will be going for Eibach springs with Bilstein dampers next, pretty much the recommendation echoing round here
#13: Re: Lowering, Brakes and servicing West Midlands Author: 138Andy, Location: NottsPosted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 1:20 pm ---- my garage fit my springs for naff all and i did the torsion bar myself :/ can he beat that
#14: Re: Lowering, Brakes and servicing West Midlands Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Sat Apr 28, 2012 1:22 pm ---- No but you worked on your own car and I'm assuming you probably know the garage staff well.. I doubt you'd do a stranger's torsion bar for free!
