Popped into B&C Coachworks as I had an issue with my bumper on my Fiat 500. Dudley came out to inspect my car and fixed the issue immediately. First class service!

Unprofessional, disorganised and dishonest. When I chased them for an update (estimate 2-3 working days, was 8 in the end) I was told they'll give me a call once done, which never happened. Then the owner blamed me for picking the car up late and was extremely unfriendly, he also accused me of being rude when I simply stated the facts. Ridiculous! Only giving two stars because the repair itself is satisfactory.

On *every occasion I or one of my family have had occasion to use their services, the quality of their work has been excellent, their price competitive and the manner in which they conduct their business exemplary. Can't fault them and come highly recommended.
