Reviews Summary

Most customers are very positive, repeatedly praising friendly, helpful staff, clear communication (often via video health checks), efficient booking/service and extras like complimentary washes or pick‑up/delivery. Common criticisms centre on aggressive upselling or unexpected extra charges (oil/non‑genuine parts), occasional delays or missed bookings, and the odd instance of poor cleaning or unresolved damage. Overall the garage enjoys strong repeat recommendations, but persistent issues around pricing transparency and follow‑up suggest a few practical improvements are needed.
