Superb place. deffo don't just tyres and brakes for sure. have a leak in the washer hose and Kamil was able to pin point it. Also sent me photos so I can see what and where it is. Probably saved me hundreds in getting new washer bottle/repipe the entire system etc. Many thanks again to Kamil (and Barry for arranging it so quickly). I only contacted them yesterday and they looked today. Even with COVID still present that is pretty impressive! Both deserve a raise!
