Anal and finicky, a perfect combination. One of the best engine builders in Sydney, so I've been told.:thumb
Hi
He's a real nice guy, I have known him for about 30 years and have never heard a bad word said about him.

Andrew would have to be one of the best VW mechanics in Sydney....
Take my cars there, even from Byron...
I have always taken my VWs to Andrew for repairs and have been very happy. His prices are good and the work is always done right. I still take my Kombi there which is saying something as it is a 300km trip.

Had some work done by Andrew Dodd this week, the job was top notch, he went everything found more things that neede to be fixed and did these too. I also appreciated his time and willingness to share his knowledge. I would recommend anyone going to see him.
