Went to the toilets for 5 minutes, came back and my car was being ransacked and stripped top to bottom. The only thing that made Kev leave was my .356 revolver I illegally carry on myself daily. Would not recommend if you enjoy un-popped tires and an unmelted engine.

The guys at Dovebank Motors were brilliant! We broke down and limped to the services, after a quick google and call he fitted us straight in. He had the car fixed in 15 minutes and was unbelievablly reasonable! If I lived local this would 100% be my local garage. Polite, professional and brilliantly priced.
