Customers are overwhelmingly positive, with numerous five‑star reviews praising friendly, helpful staff, clear communication (texts/calls) and the useful video health checks. Reviewers frequently highlight good value through BookMyGarage/main‑dealer pricing, quick turnarounds and complimentary washes or valets. A minority, however, report significant problems — disputes over quoted prices, cancelled or unavailable courtesy cars, occasional missed valets or workmanship errors and unexpected charges — which explain the few very low ratings.
