Amazing experience. Took my car in fearing the worst after hearing the possible problems from other mechanics, and online help. Mike knew the problem instantly and I was driving away in a short space of time for a minimal fee. Highly recommended.
Changed my mind, overcharged for work on my previous car for a Front flexi repair, messed up the stereo system so it wouldnt work, then when they got it working, the steering controls stopped working, then you had to switch stereo off as it wouldnt go off with engine any more. Then quoted 400 for a water pump for my Zafira Tourer.

They been telling me the part i need will be delivered "today" every single day for the past week. It's getting tiring and frustrating at this point. Every single time they do some work on the car a new problem arises soon after. All theyve done is long it out and mess around. Just tell me when my cars fixed instead of making me chase around. I just want an accurate day and time not false hope.
