Have noticed over the weekend that Clist & Rattle have closed and are relocating.
This morning,as a "valued "customer I was sent a letter telling me they are now going to be situated in there other Garage in Flax Borton.
Which will be bigger and better than Portishead and they look foward to me coming there to visit.
I have been there and I would say it is a lot smaller,could it be they are feeling the pinch.
What would be a better way of making some money that to sell there garage in the High Street,including the large plot of land at the back(bought not that long ago) and put a nice load of houses on it,Perhaps a few Luxury flats or houses or "end of life" housing as if we don't have enough all ready.
Lets watch out for planning permission.

    What a shame - We had both our cars MOT'd and Serviced in the Portishead branch of Clist & Rattle. Flax Borton is NOT convenient and so I guess I'll be looking for a new garage - probably near work in Bristol. Hope they don't build any more flats in the High Street - I suppose a Cinema would be too much to hope for?

    i agree, finally find a garge that didnt seem to rip you off, and could mot a car without it having to cost alot in extra, was good to fins a grage i trusted but now impossible to use, as working hours wont allow me to get to long ashton to get it tested, serviced, maintained.- why didyou leave portishead?

    My wife takes her car to Harbour Garage (Harbour Road Trad. Est., Portishead Tel: 01275 845000) for its MOT. Good service, no rip-off.
    Personally, I won't miss Clist & Rattle. Some years ago, I took my Honda to them for an MOT & Service, once was enough to return to Honda specialists.
