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.

Couldn’t fault him in any way, turned up and got cracked on straight away, showed me any issues that was seen while he worked on my car for my own future reference, I’d highly recommend him to anyone

James was awesome.
In fact the whole process was awesome. I booked on Sunday night after my clutch pedal failed to spring back up, to get it fixed Tuesday morning and James was on time, friendly and got straight to it. My car now runs perfectly once again. Thanks to all.

The job was quite complex as it was a Mini and replacing the clutch involved taking much of the engine area apart. The job took almost 7 hours to complete. James turned up as arranged and ensured the work was completed. He cleared up afterwards so the car and driveway was left spotless.

Needed a clutch replacement less than 24 hours after I broke down with a leaking CSC. James agreed to take the job the following morning between 8-10am and he arrived just shortly after 8am. Gave him the keys and he cracked on with it on my driveway on an extremely hot day. He had no complaints or issues and three and a half hours later both the clutch and CSC were replaced and my car worked like a dream. The best part was that there was absolutely zero mess on the driveway afterwards, like work had never taken place! Extremely great guy, efficient and friendly. I would 100% recommend him.
