I have used Station Garage, Rayleigh, for approximately 10 years for MOTs, services and any parts or repairs needed on my cars. The service and care I have received at this garage has, without exception been, fast, efficient, helpful and professional in every way, added to which I have always been pleasantly surprised their very reasonable charges. I fully trust the people at Station Garage and highly recommend them.

Convenient as I can drop my car off on way to work. The team call you to let you know it's passed it failed it's not and what needs to be done accordingly. Great service friendly team and prompt response recommended
