Nissan/Trusted Mechanic - Essex
Guys,
Not sure if anyone on here can help but ill ask anyway! In short a friend of mine is struggling to make ends meets and working 2 jobs etc - and as is always the way her car if the only means of getting to work *(she is a care home worker for an agency so lots of travelling). Anyway - her engine (nissan almera tino) went pop over the weekend - and a local garage has said her bottom end has gone and reckon its £1k to fix. Do you guys know of a trusted mechanic who would do the work for her in the essex area? Her sister is lending her a bit of money to get it sorted, and i said id ask around and see if anyone knew of anything. Cheers,

I know a few trusted mechanics mate but I wonder if its worth repairing or scrap it in and buy a "new".
I bought a 1994 e36 which was very reliable for £500 |
