I noticed that I had liquid leeking from the bottom of the car after I had scraped the bottom of the car on a speed bump. I nipped in asked them to check that their wasn't any leeks or damage which they did as I had about a 200 mile long journey to make a few days later. Everything was fine with the car. Very professional I would highly recommend them.

I have a smart 2008, and on the dashboard the tre lines for the automatic change blocked. They advised me to give the car to the skrapyard!!! Finally it was a 30 pound brakes switch to replace and the car was fixed.

Absolutely fantastic garage and good professionals. I can't recommend them enough. 200% customer care and after sale service. Just came for fitting new brakes, but will visit them in the future for MOT's and pretty much everything. Very efficient and hard workers.

Awful experience. Quoted 35 to replace a wheel stud. Returned to garage, the stud was not installed, they had re-worked the thread on the existing stud and stripped the nut. They told me I could keep the new wheel stud to get it done somewhere else!! In addition the price had gone from a 35 to 77 pounds. When I questioned the boss I was called a liar and he starting shouting at me in the office. Exactly the kind of bloke that gives garages a bad name and he should probably be more careful who he verbally abuses like that in future. I paid 40 just to get out of there but I deeply regret
