A good car workshop near Xalkida?

[ontheroad]

Hey everyone!

Nice to find a greek vw bus club!!

I'm half greek (but my greek is not that good, I speak french…) and so I come very often to Greece. My wife and I are travelling since 2015 and we are now in Evia with our T3 joker from 1984.

We have now a little problem with the speedometer... Does anyone here knows a good car workshop who knows how to fix vans around Xalkida? I don't know how it is here, but in France or Switzerland, it's very difficult to find someone who is able to fix old vans...

And by the way, are there any bus meeting in Greece, from very small to bigger??

All the best
Alexis

Hi Alexis, welcome onboard!
Unfortunately I don't know any workshop around Halkida, and there is no any member from this area to help you.
If you were in Thessaloniki (my town), or Athens for sure we could help you.
The meetings to come in 2017 are as follows:

Syncro Day 2017

It will be a syncro gathering but you can be with us on Friday and Saturday evenings, of course you can jump in a syncro if you want for the 4wd ride.

Hi Alexis
You can ask taxidrivers, were they fix taximeters in Halkida (are the same masters).

PS: You can ask here too: https://www.facebook.com/groups/vw.bus.club.greece/

Thank's for your answers! I will try to ask a taxi driver. And if I don't find anything around here, I'll have a look in Athens when i go there to see my family.
And thank's for the meeting's date! Unfortunately, we'll leave Greece at the end of april, but next year, we'll try to come to the greek meeting!
See you on the road one day!

Welcome Alexis,
I sent you in Google Maps the address of the technician that fixes mine speedometer in my T3.
If you don't find someone to fix it in Evia, for sure you can fix it there.
If you want any other assistance in your T3 in Athens, drop me a message here or VW Bus Club Group at Facebook (Babis Sioras)

Have a nice stay!!!
