Good garage near Rathfarnham, Dublin?

Postby Igor » Sun, 28 Apr 2013 7:16 +0000

Hi all!

I decided to treat my old faithful '98 MX5 with a bit of extra TLC, beside regular servicing, and am looking for a good garage near/around Rathfarnham, D14. I used to service my car at SDK motors in Stoneybatter, D7 for years and they're very very good but I live and work on the opposite site of the city and too inconvenient to leave the car there, I'd recommended them anytime btw. Since I moved recently to D14 I would like to know of some good local garage. I'd need a panel beater as well to fix some bumper and door scratches which are inevitable unfortunately the way people park around here.

So far a friend mentioned Winton garage in Churchtown, Landscape road. Anyone with MX5 experience with them?

Thanks a million!

I know it's not in South Dublin but I'd highly recommend Robert Maguire out in Swords.

A gent to deal with and he's working on my car at the moment replacing the springs.

Highly recommended by many on here.

He's on the forum also.

After giving Atlas a plug, I have to report the other side of the experience. I brought the MX5 back to them because of a battery light on the dashboard. They replaced the alternator but now it's very hard to start and the battery light still comes on occasionally - they've washed their hands of it saying they don't have a computer to do the diagnostics on so old a car.

Anyone have Robert's phone number or email address?
