Car was picked up and returned without issue. Had all my brakes replaced. No complaints. Much better value than main dealer.

Alastair was fantastic, so helpful. What I thought could have been a head gasket turned out to be the result of a scam - I was scammed by a potential buyer.
Although the final cost was a lot less than the cost of a replacement head gasket, I did think that the final bill was a little excessive

Cannot fault Alastair and the team, the communication was excellent, there were a couple of extra bits that needed to be repaired, the quote was very fair and reasonable. All work carried out as requested.
Would not hesitate to use again. Many thanks.

Hyundai i10 Clutch replacement

I recently had the clutch replaced on my Hyundai i10 with Alastair, and after that the clutch cable also needed replacing. Once the new cable went in, I found I was still struggling with gears and even got stuck in reverse at one point. I was so stressed, but Alastair was brilliant throughout.

He took the time to check everything properly, explained what was happening, and told me how the adjustments worked. In the end it turned out the cable just needed tightening, which he sorted straight away. What impressed me most is that he didn’t charge me for that adjustment, he genuinely wanted to make sure I was back on the road safely and confident.


It’s rare to find a mechanic who’s not only skilled but also patient, understanding and honest. Even though it was a stressful journey for me, I came away feeling like I was in safe hands. I’d recommend Alastair to anyone who wants a mechanic who cares about doing things right.

Perfect job. Alister also found and fixed a drive belt that looked in a worn condition that needed replacement. He asked if I wanted it replaced as well.

Needed a new clutch and front brake discs and pads. Garage collected car mid-day and still managed to bring it back the same day. I have used SVG before and the service provided is always 100%. Very impressed with the service provided and would recommend SVG to all my family and friends in the future.
