Hi everyone just got a bongo camper and need to find a garage in our area that knows about bongos. Also do I need to fit a coolant alarm? and if so why?

Many thanks
Gasace

The best in the area is Discount Trucks who are between Andover and Newbury. They come with a top rating, are Bongo specialists and are the garage I use for my V6. Also recommended are Furze Motors in Burgess Rd in Southampton, next to the McDonalds. I have not used them, but have had them recommended. They repair all Mazdas not just Bongos.

Southern Bongos in North Baddesly sell and convert Bongos and also break them. They are a good source of bits and Kevin is very helpful.

Was it you who waved at me in St Cross in Winchester yesterday? Silver Bongo just like your avtar. Around 1pm.

Another one for the list. Hodges Autolec in Bevois Valley Southampton are first class at electrics and know their way round Bongos. They also fit tow-bars. Towsure in Northam Southampton also offer this but claim their tow-bars only fit the newer Bongos.

Thanks for the info, not me waving we only use the bongo for camping, so parked yesterday.
