Gary R
I've been working on cars for 40 years in some shape or form. I started off with my father in his garage fixing cars and worked with him when I was 14 years old until i left school. I studied engineering at college and from there I worked in a motorbike shop/garage and eventually I worked at Central Tyres in Essex for a few years and then moved to a few other garages in order to gain a broader spectrum of skills and when I had that in my armoury I began my own business in 1996 and been working in it since. I am able to service all makes/models and tackle all types of repairs.

"Heater blower motor replacement Total labour time: 6-7 hours, £476.50 " was the agreed work, it took less than 2hrs to replace the motor. I still paid more than £300, The motor was not tested to check if working due to car battery running out.

When battery was fixed, blower is still not working. I guess I have to pay some more money for someone to take a look.

Gary was very friendly and worked hard to find and resolve a lighting problem with my Peugeot 5008. A small fault that was difficult to find - great job by a top mechanic.

He informed me where he was travelling from & when approximately he would get to me. Arrived promptly in the time slot he had said he would.
Carried out the work efficiently & kept me informed about what he was doing. He had prepared beforehand by bringing two different types of radiator.
Polite and friendly at all times.
Highly recommend.

Worked doggedly to remove corroded bolts and brake discs despite dwindling daylight.

Very good job at the end.

Travelled some distance and kept me up to date with progress.

Fantastic experienced professional. Fixed the issue in no time with no fuss. Also helped to start the car after it had been sat which he didn't have to do. I will be requesting the same person again.
