Phoned last minute for an MOT, came in the next day and car back the same day. Kept updated when ready to collect. Good price and professional. Would recommend.

Chris is an absolute wizard when it comes to cars. My car was at another garage for six weeks and they were unable to find the issue and actually told me to trade my car in as it was unfixable (only 40k miles). Within minutes on the phone, Chris was confident he knew what the issue was and was able to sort the issue very quickly when I brought it in. The guys at Wright Automotive are so patient and friendly, very trustworthy and take pride in what they do. They took their time to explain everything in layman's terms for me and answered all my questions thoroughly. In the future I will only be coming

The boys are so friendly and professional. Ive used them numerous times for MOT, service and any general repairs. They dont rob you which is always my fear with mechanics. Ive been to many previously that will make up faults and id be none of the wiser, but thats never happened here. I also remember a customer in front tried to leave a tip and they wouldnt take it, she was adamant to leave it so they said theyd take it off her next bill. The customer service is always fantastic. Also came to recover me on a sunday!!
