Took my almost new Fiesta in for some scratches n the front nearside to be sorted. 4 hours later, got a phone call to say it was done! The result was brilliant. Totally unable to see that anything had been done! Highly satisfied & would recommend to anyone who has any pride in their vehicle.

Job took a day longer than quoted, which creates it's own difficulties. When vehicle came back under review part of the job hadn't been done, when queried told they would have to charge another day (150). Within a matter of weeks the areas painted began to fail and within 6 months the vehicle was in a worse state than when it went in. Sent messages and images, but had no response despite the work being supposedly covered for 12 months. Shame as business came recommended by a friend.

Extremely pleased with the service received! Dented my front wing and not only did they replace it and get it back looking good as new, but they gave my car a full wax and polish and a light clean on the inside! Very friendly gents, turned it around in the time they said and offered very competitive prices. Top job 10/10 would recommend

I took my Audi S4 in to the team for front and rear bumper repairs plus a small dent repair, the quality of the job was absolutely excellent, I can't fault it, and at the price I can't recommend the company enough - brilliant, really pleased. I won't take my car(s) anywhere else. Highly recommended.
