I have a Peugeot 306 (93-96 sedan ) we used to service the car by city motors but now the car is my i send it to service by a former city motors employee who works on his own..right now the car is 11yrs old ( was my mum's car and she passed it on to me) so now i am starting to face some wear & tear parts.. some parts are costly...but it gives me good service which i cannot complain..i have no problems with the service from city motors before and now with my mechanic..
