Customers overwhelmingly praise the garage — and Chris in particular — for friendly, helpful and trustworthy service, with many noting quick, efficient MOTs and repairs, easy booking, good value and convenient collection/return. A handful of reviewers reported communication issues (missed texts/unanswered messages) and one booking glitch that allowed requests for services the garage doesn’t provide, so it’s sensible to confirm availability when you book.
