  $ curl -I -A Mozilla https://www.yourmechanic.com
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  Server: nginx/1.2.2

They're "blocking" curl for whatever reason.

Interesting.

I wonder how this is configured in nginx.

On a different note, I think it's rather odd they find the time to block user agents but do not have HSTS set.

That is broken still. I doubt they can justify UA sniffing for the homepage.
