Really pleased with the service I received. I booked my Vauxhall Mokka in to have the cambelt changed and was very happy with the whole experience.

The mechanic was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Communication was good, the work was completed as agreed, and I felt confident that the car was in capable hands.

A cambelt change is an important job and I wanted it done properly for peace of mind. The Mokka is running well and I’m very pleased with the work carried out.

Good service from start to finish, and I would happily use them again and recommend them to others.

Matt was extremely fantastic in every way possible. More than what I expected as I was using clickmechanic for the first time.
Definitely a 7 star review for both Matt(Matthew) and Clickmechanic.
So far no issues with the work done.
Would not blink an eye using this facility again and also highly recommend to anyone who is interested in using this facility.
