Had a new washer pump fitted a few months ago by MJT and after I seemed to be losing a lot of screen wash. Took my car into them today for an MOT and mentioned the issue with the screen wash. They found that the pump they fitted was faulty through no fault of their own and fitted a replacement completely free of charge. They could easily of said it was something else and charged me. I would highly recommend them and would not use anyone else

What a fantastic place. I always get brilliant service and today was no exception. Popped in with a bit on an emergency and they dropped everything to help me out. Thank you so much and see you again soon…. Why would I go anywhere else :-)

Took car for mot. Mechanic was totally honest with me when explaining what was wrong and went through all of my options. No one was available to give a quote on the repairs as it was a Saturday but by 9.30am Monday morning I had a quote. Unfortunately car has to be scrapped but mjt couldn't have been more helpful. Only 35 for mot, bargain!
