Excellent garage. Sorted out my alarm as kept going off. Took car to them same day I rang and went to collect after work. They are very friendly, informative and helpful. They were very kind and said as it was a quick fix they didn't charge me for the work. I'm sure anyone would agree that is unheard of these days. I extremely grateful and cannot thank them enough. My neighbours are very happy too now my alarm doesn't keep going off. Thank you Sun Motors.

I recently had my MoT done at Sun Motors, who I first used about seven years ago when my previous trusted garage changed hands, and they've been my first choice garage ever since, so it's about time I shared my experience of them. They're always friendly and helpful and very fair and honest and never look to do any work that isn't necessary, anything that does need doing is always explained clearly so you can make a decision, with the work then carried out to a high standard. They're a great garage and I highly recommend Dave and his team.
