Mark M
After qualifying with a distinction in Mechanical Engineering from Oxford College, I have worked in various workshops over the past 20 years gaining a wealth of experience and knowledge. This included working for a Volkswagen main agent before moving to an independent garage where I gained an MOT qualification carrying out tests for 10 years, then moving into the NHS & finally a large multi-chain auto centre before progressing to set up my own business, Mechanical Vehicle Solutions. The business offers all types of Repair and Maintenance to all makes and models with core focus on servicing, brakes, clutches and timing belts covering the Oxfordshire area. I possess the skills & tools to provide a thorough, honest and reliable service and pride myself on my ability to carry out every job to a high standard. Read more

Mark was brilliant throughout.
Needed 4 glow plugs changed. Sadly one was stubborn,so risk/cost was to great to do the 4th.
But lots of in depth feedback for other jobs needed whilst he was under the bonnet. Videos and pics along the way gave you peace of mind. A great idea/website which i found by chance and mark was commendable in all areas..
Will happily use again.

Too early to tell but car failed MOT and Mark collected my Mercedes and repaired as needed for MOT.
Good price and well informed regarding pick up and drop off. Locking wheel nut tool broke while mechanic was fixing vehicle and I was charged extra for a new uprated set of wheel nuts even though it was not my fault but overall I am happy with Marks workmanship and knowledge.
I would happily contact Mark again if I require more work doing.

Reply from Mark:

Hi Neil,

Thank you for the feedback, we appreciate all communications and are glad to hear you are satisfied with the work and would return to us.

Unfortunately the locking wheel bolt key failing is a well documented issue across all makes but more so on the Mercedes-Benz type due to shallow design.
I can assure you this was unintentional & unavoidable as the bolt weakened on removal and failed completely whilst being refitted and torque set to specified tightness.

We managed to source you an upgraded high quality bolt set at a fraction of the Merceedes-Benz replacement cost hopefully reducing the chance this situation will arise again in the future.


Unfortunately, this did mean there was a delay in returning the vehicle as an extra 2 hours were involved removing, sourcing & replacing all locking wheel bolts to address the issue of the failing locking key for which no extra labour was added.

Thank you again for your feedback and your custom, we would be happy to assist you with any future works

Kind regards

Mark was terrific - nicely on time, friendly and professional. He simply got on with the job with no problems whatsoever. We live in an apartment complex, so the parking is communal. Mark didn't interfere with anyone else's parking spaces, he parked his van in the Visitor's space and simply turned mine around so he could access the parts he needed, so no disruption caused in the neighbourhood. Will definitely be a repeat customer thanks to him!

Friendly and professional. Advised on other issues worth looking into, and had to do a bit extra in order to compete the job but didn't ask for any more money.
