Our certified technicians use official testing equipment to identify any required repairs. With transparent reporting, we explain all findings and offer competitive pricing for any necessary follow-up work.

My clutch broke following a big journey from London over Christmas. These guys couldn't have been more professional, friendly or helpful. Fitted my car in at the last minute and were able to turn it around really quickly for a great price. I couldn't recommend them more strongly!

This garage was amazing. Broke down on the M5 but managed to cripple it to this garage. Garage was very friendly, helpful and more than willing to get us back on the road ASAP to continue the journey to Looe. We broke down at 1100 and was back on the road by 1500. Absolutely superb service

Used this company multiple times for replacement brake discs and pads, replace a broken spring and for new tyres. Each time I have received excellent service at reasonable prices. They explain what is being done, why it needs to be fixed and show me on the car (if possible) the part they have fixed or replaced. I will be using this company again and will be recommending them to everyone I know!
