Positive:Professionalism
Quick and efficient service. Had advisory on my exhaust and asked to check. Guys confirmed that all ok and only the outer shell corroded and no requirement to change. Honest and not just doing the change to make the money. Would highly recommend if you want to be sure your getting value for money. Thanks

I had always used Stanshawes for my MOTs as I found Dave the tester to be top notch, unfortunately one time I went to GR Autos and that was a disaster, so I came back to what I knew and so glad I did.
