Hi ya :)

Probably best to pop an intro in the intro section - you'll get lots of nice welcomes then.

I've not been to Bob Missens for ages now and saw here on the forum the sad news it was changing hands etc.

I think a few people have used the other MOT place in Melksham - not me though. Most people who've actually been there seem to find him OK. Dont think he comes across as terribly friendly on the forum when he posts here but thats just my personal view.

Personally, I use http://www.anarchy-mc.co.uk/ in Calne for my bike - fabulous service and although he doesn't do MOT's (yet), they can be done nearby. :)

Oh and welcome ;D

my view,hes a brill guy at Motarc,cant fault him,knows what hes doing,knows his job,maybe its certain people on here that he dont seem too friendly towards, ::)

not good for business, him airing personal views on here as it could alienate others against him, word of mouth is a good/bad form of advertising depending how you view it.

never used niether of the above two but i did read a couple of his posts and that alone was enough to put ME off but just my view.

Oh and welcome Bandit, as Nikki says post in the 'introduce yourself' section for newbies

That's great glad you got good service. I think people can judge for themselves from an individuals postings ;) :)

I dont think you'll find people on here unfriendly at all - if you stay around I'm sure you'll see what I mean.
