“My mechanics (Andrew + 1) were friendly and seemed knowledgeable. They arranged to come 1 day earlier than booked for, as they knew I was pretty much housebound without the car - which I really appreciated especially in this busy Xmas/new year period. Thank you both ☺”

“Excellent experience from a company and mechanic I knew nothing about. I looked on line to see how much the part would cost and the advert popped up. I decided to try the booking system and was pleasantly surprised that the site quoted for the specific job that I wanted done. A little shakey getting the appointment over Fri, Sat, Sun but they emailed me back and kept me informed about what they were trying to do. Eventually got someone to take the job and the contact was perfect. Mechanic texted straight away to make mutual arrangements where to do the job. Came to place of work to do the job in the car park. Came early and contacted me straight away. Came down to open up for him and left him to do the job. Called me to come down when he had finished and gave good explanation of what was wrong and what he had done. Gave the ok for the payment to go through and received instant email confirming this. Service 95% (nobody's perfect) Mechanic 100% Communication 100% Time keeping 100% Efficiency 100% Would I use again? 100% Would I recommend? 100% especially to women who usually are at risk of getting ripped off. Price was good and I guess would have cost much more at garage had I chosen to go there. All in all - a brilliant experience. Many thanks. Now saving up for a full service. ”

“I assume the new brake Pads were fitted (but obviously don't know) braking seems the same as before. Something, I'm not too happy about. The Mechanic rang me up about 15 minutes and asked me if I knew my Clutch needed changing, the Car drives fine and shows no signs of slippage or difficulty in changing gear. I don't know if this is true, but it reminds me of Kwikfit policy e.g. Generating additional unnecessary work.”
