Ed (edward) ,
Couldn't have asked for anything more from this guy, he was absolutely wonderful complete full report on everything I was concerned about before buying a car without him I would not have bought.
He was a complete expert so polite and honest and spoke in length with my concerns, to have expert knowledge on hand was the best I could have asked for, worth every penny and more, if there was a 10 star rating I'd give a 12 he was that good, I will never buy a car again without an expert like Ed, thankyou so so much.

Edward provided an excellent service, great communication and photos of the work he had done. In the course of a routine repair he spotted a leak which he fixed, saving us from a costly recovery from France where we were heading a few days later.

Edd is a very knowledgeable mechanic who is always willing to go the extra mile! (pun intended)
I had booked Edd for a pre-purchase car inspection to be carried out. Unfortunately, the car purchase did not go according to plan due to unforeseen circumstances (the seller decided to sell the car to someone else despite the fact I had placed a deposit). However, this did not affect the service that Edd provides - the aftercare was fantastic and very reassuring!
I highly recommend and hope to deal with Edd for advice on all car purchases!
