Reviewers repeatedly praise James by name, fast turnaround (including same‑day and on‑drive repairs), clear communication with photos and cost breakdowns, and fair pricing. One lone low score criticised a lack of documented checks and missed advisories at a later MOT, suggesting better written documentation and more thorough pre‑MOT inspections would be beneficial.

What Car Service Do I Need?
We recommend booking a full service every 12 months or 12,000 miles and a major service every 24 months or 24,000 miles (whichever comes first) to maintain the health and roadworthiness of your vehicle. If you regularly drive long distances or have a high annual mileage, we recommend booking an interim service at the 6-month interval between annual services to give your car a bit more TLC.
