Default WiM Milton Keynes - Closed?

I just read this:

WiM Forum

Got to say I'm more than disappointed about this as its on my doorstep and I will be in need of a geo VERY soon as my car is almost ready to get back on the road...stuck now knowing whats best to do as I don't really want to drive for hours when I have no idea what the geo actually is on the car (although I did try to put all the cams in the neutral position when putting all the suspension back together).

Anywhere else near Northamptonshire apart from CoG as I don't want to pay that sort of money.

The Chesham branch is still open - it's only 40 miles from the MK branch to Chesham. Hardly the end of the world for a once a year at most trip...

Yeah I didn't realise where Chesham was until I just looked

I just gave them a call and they were pretty helpful so I'll probably give them a try this time...and just take it very steady on my way down there!

It's still a pain when I already travel 100 odd miles to get to MK!

Been to both in the past. Both did top jobs, one just cost twice as much as the other.

I was really impressed with Tony @ WIM last time I went.

The fact that one is still in business and the cheaper one isn't tells it's own story.
