Hi Ladies and Gentlemen,
If you should need a re-gas and are anywhere near Pontefract in West Yorkshire (near M62/A1 intersection) then I can recommend the guy who has just done mine tonight. If you will travel to him then he is very reasonable and did a very thorough job. Recovered/vac'd out what gas was left (not much), did leak test (no probs, phew!) and re-fill with 950g of R134r. Thorough test of all parts and it now goes down to Icy cold in no time at all.
He does advertise on Ebay {no link as per rules but search for johnr5281} where is offering £25 as a special right now but he has said this won't last (will be going back up to £30). You can also email him directly on info@jrph.wanadoo.co.uk (he did say I could post his email addy!).
Only does this in the evenings as he has a "proper" job as a plumber but he was very professional, had ALL the gear and was very straight to deal with, a real top bloke. He can also deal with minor pipework/hose/seals/repairs on your A/C system.
As you can guess, I am well pleased. ;D

I bought the diy kit from Hellfarts, took two of the small cans for each car (£11.99 per can) and alls icey cold now :)

Even at his full price of £30 it's still very good value for money :y
