Just had need to use GF today. Not in D3, Honda Jazz, supected brake issue (bad wheel vibration) so stopped at Hamilton Services on the M74 & called them. Van was there in 13 minutes and after another 30 mins I was on my way after the mechanic sorted out wheel wobble on my rear wheels (Al oxide build up) that were giving bad vibration. After that was sorted he then found the real cause of bad vibration, loose wheel nuts on FR wheel & sorted it. Very pleased with the service.  
Note to self, check wheel nut torque more regularly.

Yep, very good experience. Just barely had time to get a coffee from Costas when green van turned up. He did a good clean up on the AlO buildup around the mounting rings for the rear wheels as the wheels weren't mounting properly.
I'll now be checking the wheel nuts (loosen off then retorque) before any long hauls, the car had just been driven 400 miles and must have been gradually working the nuts loose. They were torqued up properly when winter tyres were taken off about 1,000 miles ago, last April.
