Scottish specialist required.

Hi folks,
Can anyone recommend me a good independent service and repair specialist in Central Scotland? Preferably as close to Falkirk as possible.

Cheers.

When I worked in Falkirk there was a guy named Theo Pearson who ran an independent Citroen garage. It was located next to a canal right behind a bar/club called Martell. I couldn't say if he was still going though.

Spooky! That's 2 mins from my house!
I'll have to investigate, cheers.

Ask for a garage - and no one would know ...
Mention any nearby bar/club, and suddenly people remember ...

Anders,
I've lost count of the number of times I've staggered home from the club in question!

I had a good few nights out in Falkirk but never did frequent the Martell

Anyway, if you were going to the Martell from the town center then turn left immediately after Martell and go up that street no more than 50 meters on your left was/is Theo Pearson Motors where you'd see lots of XM/Xantias/BX and CX remains in a yard. At the time (1998) he drove around in a red BX 16v.

He was a good guy - occasionally grumpy IIRC 8)
