Mobile mechanic in Borehamwood, 29 years of experience

I have more than 10 years of experience doing MOT inspections as I have completed more than 5,000 MOTs. With the experience I have, I can easily identify the common faults of most vehicle makes and models, s...

“Where do I even start with the impeccable customer service received from Ranjan.

He carried out a pre purchase inspection on a car I was 'on edge' about. I had done all of the checks online, checked the MOT, service history and taken it for a test drive before.

I have had so many bad experiences with dealers that I decided to pay for this service to put my mind at ease and he did just that and beyond.

After receiving my booking, he called me in the morning and listened to my back story, I never met with him as I live quite far but he liaised with the car dealer on my behalf. He also called when he finished carrying out the checks and had sent the report and the photos. He explained very carefully what needed to be fixed before purchasing the car and also what he thought were 'pluses' with the car. All of this put my mind at ease. He drove the car for longer than needed and did some extra checks which weren't part of the package; hence why I said he went above and beyond.

I cannot fault the high quality of service provided, his knowledge, attention to detail, punctuality, communication and care. I needed reassurance that the car was reliable and safe as I have small children (and he was able to do this for me and tell me the truth about any issues).

I will definitely have Ranjan in mind again if needed and would highly, highly recommend.”

“Overall, I’m very happy with the service. Communication by phone was excellent- the mechanic explained the issue clearly, talked through the recommended repair, and made everything easy to understand. The work was completed efficiently and I appreciated the honest advice about what needed doing now versus what could wait.

The only area that could be improved was communication by message. I sent two messages which weren’t acknowledged, so responses there were less reliable than over the phone.

Aside from that, the experience was very positive and I’d be happy to use the service again.”
