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 the perfect mechanic and ticked all the boxes. Punctual, kept me informed and let me know exact price before proceeding . Clutch replacement and flywheel replaces only drive whilst I worked from home. No problems found one work completed 10\10 👌

James did an excellent job on my Kia yesterday. I know he met a couple of problems while getting the old clutch assembly out dismantling the but worked a bit of extra time to make sure a good job was done. He is a very nice man and your organisation should be proud to have him as one of your mechanics. I hope we will get him again when I need some work doing to my car.

James was extremely professional and came across as very competent. Was a pleasure to have him and was so glad that we went down this path rather than use a more traditional garage. The garages in question wanted to charge us a similar amount for a clutch replacement, but advised us that if the flywheel needed swapping, it would be an additional £300-400. When we asked James about the flywheel, he informed us it was included in the price as our particular car came with one in the kit. Something I feel, the traditional garages would not have told us.

The convenience of having the work carried out, literally outside our house is a game changer.
We will definitely use this as our first port of call, and if we could have James carry out the work then its a win/win! Read more

I am glad i found James on ClickMechanic. What we thought was going to be a straight forward job turned out to be a complete engine blow up.James was so sorry that he was unable to fix it.
