I was driving along on A38 near Derby on my way to a holiday in Wales when my car suffered from a transmission fault and struggled to change gear after leaving Little Eaton roundabout. The automatic gearbox wasn’t very happy at all and engine malfunction light came on. I’m in the AA so phoned them and they wouldn’t come out as the light was only amber! Told to drive and find the nearest Halfords - really great breakdown service. Duly googled and found one on London Road in Derby. An absolute gem as the gentleman from there came out, despite being very busy and completed a diagnostic check, this informed him that my automatic gearbox was on its last legs! He recommended a garage near my home to have it fixed, he also suggested driving the car home and not to attempt the journey to Wales especially as the AA had left me on A38. He was an absolute marvel, dropping everything to sort out a damsel in distress!! Thank you to Halfords on London Road in Derby - glad Google found you 😀
