Hi, collected my Coupe on Sunday, it's a Scott Green 20VT from 1997 with only 50k miles and I am completely delighted.
However it has developed a power steering fluid leak and I was hoping that someone here could recommend a specialist garage in the Wirral, Chester, Liverpool area. I should know a few that cater for the Coop : North Liverpool : http://www.mototech.org.ukSt. Helens : http://www.alfatunemotorsport.co.ukBirkenhead ( Wirral ) : https://en-gb.facebook.com/olympicautos

It's only a power steering leak - what could possible go wrong Hate to say it, but a power steering leak is an mot fail obviously depending on how bad the leak is. I brought a cavalier with a short mot in my naivety many years ago, had a leaking steering rack was an expensive job needed a reconditioned rack and fitting wasn't cheap Hopefully its not too bad Anyway Welcome to the fold

It is a leaking steering rack quoted £240 for a reconditioned unit and £80 to fit it which I think is reasonable
