Why don't you send a PM to Dave_ Aber. He lives in Elgin and could probably put you on to a few garages.

Hi Tony,

Highland campervans that Rita has linked to above are probably a good bet. I rented a Bongo from them 3 or so years ago when I was thinking about getting one. They were very helpful etc, and had the space / kit / knowledge to do all the servicing on their (then) fleet of 2 Bongos and 2 Granvias. Looks like they don't rent out Bongos any more, but they will still have the facility to service them.

Can't comment more than that though, as I tend to do all my own mechanicals so I've never used them.

I've just started a new job with a huge reduction in the spare time off for the next year though - so who knows, I may need to use them myself!

Are you after a general service, or have you got a specific job / fault that you need sorted?

Cheers
Dave

(p.s. - No PM arrived yet...)

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the info - i did call them but no response and no call back after leaving a message - might retry next week. Its just for a basic coolants/oil/filter/sediment/fuel filter service, do the air myself ;) not car minded - and every job ive done on cars never works out! :)

i've noticed a few bongo's around here and where i work in kinloss, will maybe ask one of them if i stop near one.

cheers!
