Simon S
I spent the first 7 years of my career building vehicles from ground upwards including replica vintage taxis and helping the customers keep them road worthy and doing on site repairs when needed.
I then moved on into restoration of classic cars and ran a local village mot station alongside side doing servicing, mot repairs and general mechanical and diagnostic work on classic and modern vehicles.

From 2013 onwards I have worked mainly doing fleet contracts, repairing a fleet of vehicles for a large company covering all aspects of keeping the vehicles going and getting them back on the road, along side this I have looked after a private collection of classic and modern high end vehicles for a client for the past 11 years.

I have booked for a pre check before buying a used car. Mechanic gave me a very good rating after the inspection. Even after I asked him specifically about the engine. He mentioned everything is really good. I bought the car trusting his feedback. Now just after a week I bought the car, I started getting the engine symbol on the dashboard.

Reply from Simon:

I’m sorry to hear that. But at time of doing inspection, plugging in computer and taking for a good road test there was no signs of any issues or codes in the ecu.
So nothing to report from the inspection
