Reviews Summary

Customers are overwhelmingly positive, repeatedly praising friendly, professional and knowledgeable staff, clear communication and fair, honest pricing. Frequent strengths cited include quick turnarounds for MOTs and repairs, reliable diagnostics and a trustworthy, reassuring service (several customers name staff like Sid and Raheem). A handful of negative reports flag poor paperwork/documentation, one expensive oil‑change experience and a possible cash‑only practice, so clearer invoices and more payment options would help.

Reviews Summary

Customers largely praise the garage for friendly, helpful staff, prompt and professional work, clear communication (including videos and updates) and flexibility. A minority complained about unclear or misleading booking and warranty information — one said a promised year’s warranty required extra payment and another described a full service being advertised but only an interim being available — and a reviewer also noted a missed service wash. The garage is generally trusted and recommended, but clarifying pricing and warranty wording would remove the main sources of dissatisfaction.

Reviews Summary

Customers frequently praise friendly, helpful and professional staff, noting quick, efficient MOTs and services and many five‑star recommendations. Several reviews, though, describe inconsistent experiences — booking and communication problems (including calls routed to the wrong office), occasional refusal to carry out small jobs and at least one dispute over unexpected extra charges. Taken together the feedback suggests strong customer-facing service on most visits but occasional lapses in communication and pricing transparency.
