Ariège Author Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 My parents are on their way to France from Ireland and their car won't start. The problem happened on the boat and they will most likely need a mechanic/garage when they land tomorrow morning (Thurs 6th June). Any locals out there in the Roscoff area who can offer a recommendation?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ariège Author Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Cheers Russethouse! I've got the number for a garage nearby and have called them to say there might be a call for their expertise in the morning...fingers crossed it starts. Failing that, my parents get a holiday in Brittany! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ariège Author Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 Not that simple - the car stalled on the ramp up into the top of the ferry when boarding and wouldn't start again. But the good news is, it started no problems this morning and they are on their way...phew. Coming from a rain soaked west of Ireland, they were determined to get their holiday in France, even if it meant two weeks in Roscoff while the car was fixed! Thanks all for the help.

Val_2 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I have already responded to this on another forum a few days ago and everything has turned out fine in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
