hello everyone
for anyone who knows me or have taken advice from me in the past i would like to announce that i have left
my position of a mastertec in my dealership.
i have now decided to open my own peugeot specialist as im unhappy at the amount of money main dealers charge and the lack of trained ,experianced techs they use to take your well earnt money.
i hope to bring the same level of expertease and care as before but at alot lower price where possible
so if anyone in the south west(devon) fancy giving me atry or further afield i would be very happy to help.
im the throws of having new ramp and equipment install into my unit and a website being constructed.
hopefully functional in the next few weeks.
will post again soon with contact details etc for anyone interested.

admin i am sorry if this is not allowed and feel free to remove or if allowed made a sticky.
thank you all your support.

Good luck in your new venture reap. We can do with all the good Peugeot indies we can get.
People have only got to read your many posts to realise that your expertise is considerable. Just make sure you charge enough.

Best of luck, Reap! I've often read your posts and found them very useful.

I live in Kent but have family in the West Country so may book a service some day!

I'm a retired Bank Manager and have experienced many folk setting up in business on their own. Lack of success in a new venture often comes from two things: lack of working capital, and getting the pricing structure wrong. All I am saying is, don't be a busy fool. Too cheap and you'll have too much demand, work all hours to cope, and make too little to live on.

£35 per hour sounds reasonable.
