Great service. Looked after my dad and his motor home. The job we thought was necessary and was going cost a fortune, didn't need to done, so dad wasn't ripped off with the expenses of a needles job. So thank you

Wife's car died on Xmas Eve too late to get to a garage. Rang TLT first day after the holidays, AA took the car in. Picked it up at lunch time the next day. Wife is very happy, I'm really happy.
