The service I received was excellent. I was kept informed of what was happening with my car from pick up to drop off and the repair itself was of a high standard. Would definitely recommend.

Car collected, repaired and returned quickly, however vehicle had to be returned for work to be done that should have been done the first time.

Good and bad…

I liked the way our car was picked up and returned. Lovely, polite staff. My car looked great but, I didn't like that it didn't come back on the days promised!

Brilliant service.

From start to finish, the service was brilliant and informative throughout the repair process. The car was collected and delivered on time, and I’m very happy with both the service and the quality of the repairs. Highly recommended!

Damaged my car whilst in your care

Damaged my car whilst in your care. Then told me that it was there before it went in for repair. I 100% proved that it was not damaged in any way before it went in to your workshop. Then we got on to the repair itself. It was not complete when returned to me ??? Things missing off the car. The part you were supposed to have replaced was also damaged ??? Just a shoddy outfit. They do not care about your property at all. Never send your vehicle here I beg you.
