“I have never used a mobile mechanic service before. I have to say I was very, very impressed. The process is very easy, competitively priced, and very good communications throughout. Mechanic turned up on time and was very professional throughout the repair.

Mechanic (Karl) was a very competent mechanic, agreed with my self-diagnostics (flat battery) and proceeded to replace the same quickly. This is where Karl went above and beyond and advised my old battery (which was less than 3 years old) was the wrong size for my car (I will take that up with a national high street chain in due course – you just can’t rely on them). Also advised my alternator was working absolutely fine and charging normally and at my next car service to get one of my two alternator belts checked out.

All in all yes a very good service, reasonably priced especially if your car is totally immobile and cannot be driven to a local garage. Well done. I will recommend this service to my family, friends and neighbours.”
