Shaw Safari | Mechanic and Parts

November 3rd, 2022 by nickianddave

Shaw Safari is primarily a self drive safari company. They have 10 vehicles which are a mixture of Landrover and Toyota. The reputation of the business is clearly linked to the reliability of those vehicles. They have a fully equipped workshop, inspection bay and trained mechanics to support that business. I needed work done to our Toyota and after speaking with Paul the owner (who offered me the choice to visit Toyota) I decided to get the work done and a service here. We have tested the vehicle on rough roads since and I can not fault the work done. Having been present when the work was done I have no reservations in recommending Shaw Safari as a reliable and honest place to get some work done if you need it. As an added bonus they have a great campsite which makes any stay a pleasure. @a.truck.called.wanda

Went to Shaw Safaris for repair of my Defender as they only rent out Defenders for Safari tours and were recommended by friends.
After having a breakdown we discovered that Shaw Safari did bungling work using second-hand parts built-in in the wrong way which finally led to the breakdown.
Other than that I am truly disappointed of their unprofessionalism, failure and letting us down after those troubles.
I hope I can protect other people from having same experiences.
(On the pictures you see a new vacuum pump and the one installed by Shaw Safaris which is proven to having caused the breakdown as it was installed in the wrong way - missing grease).
