A good service, all done with MOT and returned in a timely manner. No issues at all.

Valerica was punctual communicative and carried out a professional job

absolutely excellent, all went to plan great timing and really good job done.
will use him again.

All went smoothly, Valerica turned up on time and took the car up to his garage in Finchampstead, returned later that day once repairs complete :)

I had a very stressful experience with this repair and regret using the service. I was in a difficult situation with my car and needed repairs quickly, which is why I decided to use ClickMechanic.
After the work was completed and the car was returned, I noticed several issues that concerned me. More recently, a friend who is more experienced with cars helped me inspect the vehicle. When we opened the bonnet and then went to close it, he noticed that the bonnet support rod retaining clip (the small clip that holds the bonnet prop rod in place when the bonnet is closed) was missing. He pointed this out to me immediately because he had been with me when I originally inspected and purchased the car and remembers that the clip was present at that time. Because I am relatively new to car ownership, I had not realised this part was missing until he showed me how it should normally look on another vehicle.
In addition, the boot strut on the left side no longer holds the boot open and the boot now falls down immediately when opened. I also noticed a black, oily residue around the left boot strut, which appears to indicate that the strut has leaked and failed. When I raised this concern with the mechanic, he stated that this was already the condition of the car when he collected it, which does not match my understanding of the vehicle’s condition prior to the repair.
When I raised these concerns with the mechanic, he strongly denied that any damage had occurred while the car was in his care. The conversation became uncomfortable and I felt that my concerns were dismissed rather than properly investigated.
The replaced parts were also not returned to me. My understanding was that replaced parts are often returned to the customer so they can see what has been changed. I can confirm that the windscreen wipers and radiator appear to have been replaced, but I did not receive the other parts and therefore cannot independently verify all the work that was carried out.
As someone who is relatively new to car ownership, this experience has left me feeling uncertain about what work was actually completed and unsure about trusting the process. My car may be older, but it is still important to me because I rely on it for daily travel.
Overall, I wish there had been clearer communication and better reassurance about the work that was carried out on the vehicle. Read more

We are very happy with the mechanic Valerica, he was a good communicator and did a thorough pre purchase inspection for us.

He Picked my car up for an MOT promptly and communicated throughout. he was polite and honest. i really couldn't be happier with valerica thank you

Valerica did an excellent job of my pre inspection report. His communication was excellent throught the whole process and he emailed me the report soon after inspecting the vehicle. I would highly recommend him and will keep him in mind in the future.

Prompt efficient, polite and professional. Very happy with the work which was carried out.

Communication with Valerica was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and carried out a thorough inspection of the car. Our discussion after the inspection was particularly helpful in deciding whether to go ahead with the purchase. I would highly recommend his services.
