Ta Neeja, although you may come to regret that offer lol. I was just going to ask if you or anyone knew if there was a good cheap and friendly mechanic around the area as I'd like to get all the insides checked and fixed as needed and I've never been a big fan of doing my own brakes.

Being honest? If you want someone professional, go to RD5 in the town centre. It's just down the side of Warrington Central near a sex-shop They're fantastic, and have a massive sale on clothing at the moment - 20% off everything in stock.

Yep, mechanic workshop in the back. Their mechanic's awesome - he's only young, but is qualified by Honda and BMW or something - multiple manufacturers at least. Labour's £35/hour, which seems to be cheaper than the £45-£50/hour labour that seems to float around as average here, and he'll get a job done quickly, too.
