Mobile Vehicle Servicing , Nottinghamshire | ClickMechanic

Zak R
I have 24 years of experience in the mechanics industry. After leaving the Royal Engineers I started my mobile mechanic business, originally in Derby. After 7 years, I decided to move to Australia. While there I worked in a large accident repair shop for 1 year. I eventually decided to come back to the UK, where I set up a business in Nottingham. I have been running this business for the past 14 years. In 2016 I was fortunate enough to star in the National Geographic Channel show "Mine Kings" showing off my mechanic's skills in 10 countries over 6 months.

I am happy with the work he did on my car. He explained what the problem was. Only complaint was that he put handbrake on so tight that i struggled to release it.

Customer would like to amend the review:

please can you change me review. I was very happy with the service after speaking to a number of other garages and identifying that the mechanic did a very thorough job and ended up identifying the numerous problems with the car and saving me a fortune in the long run.


Thank you.

Please give him top marks for each category.

Reply from Zak:

Hello, I'm sorry that I don't have your phone number as I would have liked to be able to call you to discuss the situation and indeed the condition of the vehicle at the time.

I'm not sure why you think we didn't call prior to arrival, because we did. Apparently it is the policy of the seller to not allow test drives in any case, something we haven't come across before. Perhaps they felt the outcome would be unfavourable.

I believe that even if the vehicle was test driven the number and extent of faults found during the inspection would have made purchasing the vehicle unwise.

Lastly, the test drive is around 15 minutes out of a 90/120 minute in-depth examination and in this case would have not altered the outcome of the inspection overall, which would still have been to advise you against buying the vehicle.


I can understand why you feel as you do, but I can assure you we are very concietious and work very hard to provide a good service, in this case the inability to test drive is outside of our control and all responsibility lies with the seller.

I am happy to discuss this further with you should you wish.

Yours faithfully
Zak

Zac contacted me almost immediately after I booked online. He arrived on time (on a Saturday as well) and carried out the work with the minimum of fuss. Excellent job all round
