Charlie Croft is so young but has been doing this stuff since he was 16 it was a dpf regen he did for me at home in the dark: nost satisfying 300 quid ive ever spent on a car, took time to track AND REPAIR an undiagnosed diesel leak in my spill return too. It was the BEST car repair experience - and Ive had a few owning french vans & cars ! - I could remember. Good luck Charlie with your career plans! Rupert fm Littlehampton. And we were both from Pulborough which is rare these days.

Charlie arrived bang on time and was courteous and professional from the start. He cracked on straight away with replacing my Focus front and rear discs and pads and new spark plugs. After the job was finished Charlie test drove the car and checked everything was in order and reported back to me all ok.
I’ve since taken the car out myself and it drives better than ever with the new plugs and the brakes are perfect. Thanks for a great job Charlie

Charlie came and done a service on my bmw and honestly couldn’t be happier. Proper sound mechanic — knows his stuff, explains everything clearly, and doesn’t mess you about. Car feels spot on now and the work was done quickly and professionally. Fair pricing, top workmanship, and you can tell he actually cares about the cars he works on. Would 100% recommend Charlie to anyone.

Reply from Charlie:

Thankyou Oliver for your kind review it was my pleasure carrying out your service for you.
