Glosphil Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Hi Guys, Just spent the day at MKIVStore watching Jody service my Supra. Was a long job for him as they changed the cam belt, every single fluid and spark plugs (IK24's) I spent the day watching and asking questions and he was so attentive and helpful I was quite taken back. Most garages dont let you watch, let alone want to answer 101 questions. The car now feels much better so well worth the trip. Got some other bits and bobs while I was there too. Highly recommend them, they are simply the best garage in terms of service I've been to. My 6th spark plug was clean as a whistle too yay Get yourselves down there if you get a chance, you wont regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucifer Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I never Knew Jody was a mechanic:) Jody does alot of different jobs around the place, he is worth his weight in octane. Glad you liked the service, we try to open on a Saturday for local forum members to come and chat. Hopefully see you soon for the next stage.

RobSheffield Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Is Jody a qualified mechanic? By qualified i mean 'to work on members cars' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glosphil Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Is Jody a qualified mechanic? By qualified i mean 'to work on members cars' Mate, if you saw how well he knew his way around my supra engine bay, you'd have your answer. Every nut and bold, he knew like the back of his hand. This guy knows his stuff and used to work for Toyota too. There wasnt one thing he couldnt answer and I asked a lot ! lol (being a newbie) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucifer Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Is Jody a qualified mechanic? By qualified i mean 'to work on members cars' Not sure what you mean, but he is fully insured for parts and work liability as well as test driving. He holds no Formal qualifications no, but there again nor do most fitters who trade on here. I feel 110% confident about Jody's work and the way it represents my business, his work is far better than mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Harwood Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Is Jody a qualified mechanic? By qualified i mean 'to work on members cars' There are some traders on here that shouldn't be qualified to work on toy cars! Edited to add, I've never seen any of Jody's work, so I'm not criticising his work at all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might reflect badly. I wasn't taking the piss at all. Deadly serious. And I can't see any way that my comment could reflect badly on Martin or Jody.
