“The issue with amazing reviews, is that they sound too good to be true (when you read them fresh)...but having had P1 Mobile Mechanics work on my car over the weekend, I can agree with all the other statements and truly say that Robert exceeded my expectations!

The key differentiating actions he took were:

* Communicated his arrival time in advance, offered flexible options that allowed me to plan my morning
* Fitted superior performance products
* Took the time to do a thorough and comprehensive fitment
* Kept me informed with his progress throughout the day
* Treated my car/property with respect/left no mess and demonstrated a real passion in what he does

End to end, the experience was great and I'll be recommending P1 to friends and family”

“The mechanic did a fantastic job replacing the clutch and the flywheel on my semi-automatic Peugeot. He did it right on my driveway, and was working non-stop for about 10 hours! And he replaced it on the next day after I placed my request. Last but not least, he did it at a lower cost than the other three garages I had contacted before, and which could only do it in two-three weeks time.

Just one week passed, and I am usually wary of reviewing auto repairs too early, because I've had this experience more than once that a lousy job only manifests itself in a couple of months, but this time I feel confident that the job was done professionally and to the high standard.”
