Report
I came to this garage on a whim when I had a faulty van. They diagnosed the van and could instantly tell me that a new battery was needed. I needed the battery as quickly as possible as I was running late for my customers so I went and grabbed a new battery and the brilliant lads here told me to come back and they would fit it for me. When I asked for the bill they said it was on them. Can not fault that kind of generosity in these times. I did give them a decent tip which hopefully went to the lads that helped me that morning. On this I'd definitely return to this garage and would now recommend

Been using these guys 4-5 years for my car's and camper van. When you find a decent honest garage you stick with them. Si always is very upfront about what needs doing and what it will cost. Most jobs done same day. Never any pressure to do work you don't want to. Gives me the facts and let's me decide. Top work lads, thanks!

Great garage, the staff are friendly. We have all three of our cars MOT and servicing done there. Would definitely recommend David Palmer Garage,I've never had any concerns and they have never tried to rip me off.
