“Ben was great. Precise 30 minute time slot and gave me a call when he was 5 minutes away. He was polite and friendly. I have struggled in the past to obtain a stop-start battery and get it fitted. Found the click mechanic site and was delighted to find they could do this. Put the work order in late Friday afternoon and all done by 10:30 on Saturday. So relieved to have it sorted just before Christmas.”

“Raja was superb. Thank you ! I was immediately impressed with Raja. He thoroughly and carefully explained what he was going to do. He had to revisit because he had to purchase a part directly from Peugeot. We agreed together a convenient time to come back and he arrived promptly once more. I have to say that I have never felt so confident with a tradesman as I did with Raja. I truly could not recommend him more. Once more, thanks again Raja.”
