James Z
I began my career Zimbabwe as a motor mechanic and spent around 6 years here before coming across to the UK. I have worked for Jaguar and Aston Martin among others and contracted to different franchised dealerships and independent dealers like Available Cars,Motor Depot etc as well as Trade Centre Wales and that has allowed me to gain great experience in all makes/models & repairs. I set-up my own business Vigilant Automotive Ltd 2016 trading as a mobile mechanic catering for all makes/models & repairs.

James was outstanding. His mechanical knowledge (especially relating to clutches) is extraordinary. He turned up exactly when he said and immediately got down to work with no fuss. Despite the challenges of changing the clutch on a Mini One (and there are several), he worked at a pace and to a standard that could not be faulted; he even advised on some other minor problems that he detected. I would have no hesitation in recommending James; he is an excellent mechanic, and extremely personable.

James was great. He was punctual and professional. For a mobile mechanic his prices don't break the bank. I would highly recommend James and I will be using him again in the future.

James was a lovely person who although he initially was booked for a clutch problem diagnosed that it was a drive shaft problem who then proceeded to fix the issue in the most cost effective way , he was an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would without doubt use him again or recommend him
