Ditto.

You got mail

Seeker of truth and justice.

I have also used Jeff before and have had no problems with his work. He also gave me a lift and picked me up form the train station.

So who is Skippy then?

I have used zedworld twice now and had no problems, and will also be taking my car there in the near future.

Just dropped my motor off there this very afternoon for a load of work to be done on it. Jeff came and inspected the car for me a few weeks back, did an honest appraisal of it and told me exactly what needed doing and the cost to do it. He's a throughly nice bloke and sooo helpful too.

I pretend to work, they pretend to pay me!

Wish he'd post the car mats that he promised to send me from the end of November, then....and yes, I have chased him...

Proof that it's quiet on here - not a single litigious comment...

 

...YET! :D

I'm resisting the urge.... It wouldn't be fair as he's not here to defend himself....

hehe go medievil on me instead, I love it ;)

Jeff did my 60K last year. I had a few problems with the fan shroud afterwords due to my car being a NA and the difference between it and a NA. Jeff offered to replace the fan shroud to me, I updgraded it to a carbon fiber one instead.

 

He also did a final service on the car before I sold it.

 

He always picked me up / dropped me off at the local train station and answered my calls for support even when not related to work he had done. He is not perfect, no one is, but I truely believe he was trying to do the best he could at a fair price. I would reccomend him to anyone.

oops, forgot to mention, I was going to be out of the country when the sale of my car went through so Jeff volunteered to keep the car until the buyer picked it up and complete the formatlities. What a great guy!

i have never used Jeff but have spoken to him on a couple of occaisions, once in person the rest by email and on here and on the phone and he seemed a genuinely pleasant guy. If id lived a bit closer then i would probably have given him a shot at working on my car but he doesnt live near me and i have a mechanic who i am very happy with at the moment anyway.

However it would appear on here that since Jeff set up zed world there are a few on here who were waiting for him to take a fall to get the boot in... I dont know the wheres or whys or reasons but thats what it seems like, and after the incident with ajays or emeros car whosever it was, it all kicked off big style and Jeff no longer comes here.

Emero's car, I was driving...

 

On the face of what I've seen, it appears that while good work has been done on some Zeds, the all important checking and precautions aren't taken.

 

There were some glaring omissions on Emero's car which is down to an unprofessional approach to repairing cars.

 

 

 

(Disclaimer : this is all in my own opinion based on what I have seen and what I was driving at the time....)

WTF are you on?

Someone asked what people thought of Zedworld.

 

People replied to the question, most of which possitive.

 

So what's your problem with what has been said Chris?

Could have been far worse couldn't it?

I've had a service, frony bushes, and valet done, all for less than Nissan would have charged me for the service alone, and he did a great job too. I'd recommend him for sure.

I have used Jeff a few times now and have been more than pleased with what he's done for me. From my own experience he goes that little bit further than you might expect "these days".

 

But as for a post that asks the specific question of what "we" think of him, you gotta expect good AND bad, and I wouldn't want it any other way for me to make my mind up.

 

James.

Chris - EVERY company has has good and bad things about them - surely you aren't banning freedom of speech are you?

 

My post was about what I know was wrong with the car that I was driving.

 

Based on previous threads, this is quite mild.

Picked my z up from Jeff on Satday. He had done a top job, full service with all the belts, pump etc, new shockers, new brakes etc. Bloody good valet and had the car looking well.

Persoanlly I cant fault the fella

Nick:cool:

I pretend to work, they pretend to pay me!

I have been taking my car to Jeff since I bought it last September. Any work that Jeff has done, I have never had to check, if there have been any problems he has told me up front and I have been and am, more than happy with the quality of his work.

 

However, due to the fact that I have such faith in his work, the only negative comment I have, is that he only works on Zs and the wife has a rover. Looks like I am going to have to get her a Z too.

 

Seriously though, Jeff realizes that people are not made of money and and will quote a price for a job before he starts, rather than telling you at the end how long it took him and charging you by the hour.

 

As far as the Emero/Ajay business, I dont know the exact details and I am all for freedom of speech, however, from the posts I saw of what Emero said when she got her car back, she seemed over the moon and very happy with Jeffs work. Infact, I went to pick my car up from Jeff's when he was washing/valeting her car. That was at around 9pm on a Friday, if I remember correctly. I don't know of any garages that are working till 9pm, and I've also known him to be there after midnight.

 

Anyway, that's my take on Jeff's good work. long may it continue.

 

:)
