Chris T
Having spent over 18 years in the motor trade as a senior/ master technician, I have gained a huge amount of experience and skills. I started off as a Technician working on Porsche's for the first 9 years of my career and then moved onto working as a Senior/ Master Technician at a prestigious independent garage in Central London, working on all manufacturer vehicles.

I now operate out of a mercedes vito 2016 which is a ulez friendly van and all my air tools are powered by compressed air which comes from gas cylinders rather than generators. The reason being is so there is no smell or no noise pollution whilst I am working outside homes, businesses or on the roadside.
I am discreet, honest and reliable and no job is out of my depth. I have plenty of contacts within the motor trade therefore, I am able to easily access premises were ramps are available for me to use if need be. My number one priority is to keep my customers happy by ensuring all their vehicle needs are met as well as building and maintaining a good working relationship. Read more

Chris was excellent but could not diagnose the fault with the fob except it was old and possibly needs a new battery which I have and will try.

The air bag warning light was put right but when I drove the car an hour later it was back instantly so nothing really helped I'm afraid bit of a waste of £60 odd.

I originally asked for my glow bulbs to be replaced but the mechanic assessed the engine and used his computer device to diagnose the problem and gave me advice as to what was needed. He said it would be a waste of time if I went ahead with what I asked. I was very impressed with his honesty and thorough inspection.

Chris was brilliant.
He carried out a vehicle inspection for me and really put my mind at ease. He was able to point out some minor issues that I was able to negotiate off the sale price.
I would highly recommend.
