ABSOLUTE LEGENDS! So I took my Vauxhall Insignia in for a fuel filter change. I had previously took it to TWO different garages (one of which was in Chorley) and was told it was impossible to remove the filter without breaking the housing took it to these guys at 0830 and by 1000 in was off, changed and back to me! Definitely found my garage for all future work and will be highly recommending them to everyone. Thanks guys. Top class service and great value!!

Brilliant service from Ron and the team. We've taken our cars there for many years now and they always do an excellent job. We live across the road so it's very handy too. They've come to the rescue on a couple of occasions when my old car has conked out and taken care of it very quickly. I've read on here about them parking their cars all across the road where we live. I've lived here for 18 years and this has never been a problem for us as the only people who park cars on the road are from enterprise next door to motoron so that completely not true. Will continue to use them for many years to

Had nothing but great service from Motoron, had my car in twice for work to be done and I cant fault them at all. Will be definitely coming back in the future if anything else needs doing to my car and when its due a MOT, staff very friendly and made me feel really welcome, I suffer with social anxiety myself and they made me feel at ease. Recently read a review a lady posted regarding motoron which I personally dont believe to be real as I myself and many people who I know have never had a bad experience with them. Their prices are reasonable and quality of work is exceptional. 5* would
