Recommend garages in Wellington/Lower Hutt

Post by Jeaves »

Hi
I have a Mk1 MR2 in storage in Lower Hutt, it is SORN and has not been on the road for6 years.
I am currently living in the UK and am coming back to NZ for 3 months holiday and would like to get the car back on the road to enjoy while I'm in New Zealand.

The body work is excellent, the car runs well, I had it checked out while over for a visit in 2019, it needed some work ie,

Front brake caliper seized
hand brake cable seized

Any recommendations in the Wellington/Lower Hutt area how could carry out this work

Can you get New Cables and caliper's ?
this will be your best bet as most garages can do a straight swap
or you could con someone from the club to pop round and help swap in the new parts .
Boosted cars are like hot women.
A little edgy, every guy wants one,
some guys can't handle them,
and if you throw a little alcohol in them they'll rock your world.
