David was very helpful and clear, as he assisted me with the challenging task of buying a used car and explained everything thoroughly. He was attentive, detailed, and most importantly, professional.

Didn’t help us , we pay £ 90 for nothing. O diagnostic, no results. So i”m not happy anymore with this type service:

Reply from David:

A diagnosis was carried out on your van and you were made aware that there is a communication issues between the engine ecu and the body control unit. I don't think it can be any clearer. You paid for a diagnostic service which has been fully met. When it comes to the repair of the fault that lies with you. I emailed you the fully detailed fault code report. If you wanter a repair carried out then another service should be chosen. You have also been interchanging parts with out a diagnosis having been carried out so this wouldn't be a job I would take on because of that.

Very inconclusive and surface-level feedback after paying for the premium service (180). I understand it’s difficult to diagnose certain things, but I was hoping to have a more elaborate feedback on the state of the car and a personal opinion from the mechanic would have been very useful. The wipers both front and rear were not tested because they were not working, but were stated as being in working condition, amongst other things, which makes you wonder what actually was tested. For this price, would not recommend at all.

Reply from David:

Hi,

A fully comprehensive check was completed on this vehicle top to bottom including a call aftwrwards to discuss the vehicle. The wipers were tested front and rear as part of the checks including being used whilst test driving the vehicle with the customer present. If the wipers weren't working at the time you went to purchase the vehicle then unfortunately that is not my issue. I can 100% confirm they were tested. You can clearly see from all my previous reviews I am very trustworthy technician and always check every vehicle with the same quality. It would not be in my interest to lie about a vehicle having or not having a fault that makes no sense.
This review should be removed. Read more
