St. Russell has fixed George!

:thanks: :thanks: :thanks:

Thank you Thank You Thank You to everyone who advised me to get in touch with Russell (MGSolutions)...what a lovely, fantastic guy! I am SOOOOOO happy!!!!

:woohoo:

He has sorted George's HGF and he is now purring happily (George, not Russell!). :clap:

What can I say? it only took him about 3 hours- less time than it took him to drive to my house! I thought it was very reasonable price wise, and I will certainly be using him again for servicing etc etc. :yesnod:

Also, he spoke VERY highly of some of the people on this forum, which I thought was reassuring to a novice like myself.

Here's hoping for a fine day today, then I can get out with the roof down!

:whee:

I've attached some pics of the offending part for those who like to see such horrors...

Thanks again,
Maggy x

I'm so happy for you Maggy!:yesnod:

That head gasket is most definitely..... fubared!

Here's to some top-down weather to celebrate. Woohoo!

Hurrah.

Good news. He does seem to be everyones favourite. Hope to meet him one day, but only socialy.

Good to hear he likes the people on here too.

soooo pleased George is all better and Russel is as good as everyone says

shame it took HGF to get you to take the hard top off!

Clive, you could meet the man in person as he's coming to do mine on the 6th :dc:

I'll have to see what I am doing.

The only problem with chatting to people who know what they are doing is that they might find out that I have been bluffing all this time.

Is it snowing over your way?

Well, I was thinking about it until I heard my Nissan failed its MOT (broken rear spring). So it looks as if I'll be busy next weekend.:dunno:

i thought you retired types had all the time in the world :dc:

It's not the time, it's the lack of desire to do it myself. I'm getting the MOT garage mechanic guy to do it, he only charges £25 an hour and he can get the springs cheaper than I can.
:yesnod:

glad that my namesake George is back on form, Russell is indeed the man. enjoy driving him again
