Hi guys
I'm starting to overhaul my 1.8 gti and I was wondering if anyone has any decent garages they use for engine rebuilds in the South Wales/ Bristol areas? 
Thanks

Although they mainly focus on watercooled, heard MaD in kingswood are good. Take my car to AudiVolks in keynesham whom Mad recommended and they are great.

Good luck and let us know who you decided.

Cheers
Ross

Thanks man ill look into it… It'll be a while before I get it done though as I'm saving for the body work to get done first and the engine is pretty much the last thing on the list but hopefully it won't be too long :)

I take mine to Jon Wilding here in Abergavenny - VW Audi specialist and all round decent bloke! He's got a lot of experience with classic VW's and has been extremely sympathetic with mine  :)  Let me know if you'd like his details (although you can find him on Yell).

Sweet cheers guys… I wont be going for a drive in it any time soon its been parked up for over 2 years before I got it and another year since then so its a nut and bolt jobby I think :(… ive still not got round to taking the engine out yet due to not having anywhere to keep it while I figure out what I want to do to it plus ive just got back off holiday so sorting the money out for it isnt going well :/. But itll hopefully get started on this winter. And yea im from South Wales.
