Can anyone recommend a mechanic in the Hastings area. One that doesn't charge a call out fee to look at the vehicle and who is cheap and reliable

I'm Not too sure what the problem is been told many things by mechanical wanna bees so I thought best to get someone who knows what they are talking about. It was working on Sunday then it died

If you've been led astray by wannabe's then it's time to recognise you have to open your wallet.

LOL So you want a skilled, qualified and reliable person to come round to your house in their own time to give you advise for nothing, on the pretense that you might give them some work IF they're cheap enough!

Pretty much, I think i've spent enough on mechanic call out fees and still have problems with car does that explain why

I don't mind spending money as long as I get value for my money and the job done correctly

OK prove it. What have you spent, with whom and what did you receive! If you're not prepared to answer the above, why do you think any real mechanic would want to take on this charity case!

Lot of dumb answers here, try a mobile mechanic, you will have to pay, but at least you know what is wrong. Can you get a friendtow it to a garage for you, they may charge you for there time to diagnose it, then tell you the cost to fix it. Does it turn over. Post as good a description as you can, someone with HELPFUL advice may be along soon.
Don't try to prove anything with 'Know it all's' they are quick to pick holes.

Time is money, but ultimately its the only thing money can't buy. Why should people give it away!

You sound like one of those call out wanna bees, and your materialistic ways of thinking (onis valiadictums) are non productive

Well I was thinking that if you had some kind of extenuating circumstances I might help you. I think not.

Tell us the problem, then tell us the make, model, engine and milage of your vehicle. We then maybe able to offer some advice.

You should have stated your intentions from the beginning without all the negative assumptions

Not really you wanted MY charity not vice-verse. Like I said best of luck on your quest, I won't be helping you.

Good luck to anyone who wastes their time here, feedback alone tells you OP is a time waster. If you want to rent the expertise of a trained professional, then you pay. Thats how mechanic's feed their families and pay their bills.
