I took my car to several garages and they couldn’t find a problem with the car. I called this mechanic out because my car wouldn’t start at all one morning, and he came out to look at the car on the same day!
Affer being recovered to his garage, he found the problem, kept me fully informed, and fixed the car.
I am very happy now that my car is running better than ever. I won’t be going anywhere else now!
Thankyou

Ignorant

Talked to him on the phone about central locking on jag xf. Said he'd phone me next day to arrange repair. Never phoned. Gave him the benefit of the doubt. And texted him next day. Never even had the decency to text back. His loss as I wanted other work done. Courtesy means a lot to me.

Wasting my time...

Booked an appointment. Sent a text agreeing to meet the day before... got to the place following day.
Rang him and asked where he is... says on holiday!

AVOID!

Would use again.

Quick call out, clear diagnostics, arranged recovery, kept to quoted price and fixed and returned car within a couple of days. Clear and honest advice, and very good service. Will use again.

Very happy with the good service from Elliott helped fix the problem on my car and then when there was another problem he was straight out to diagnose the 2nd problem and fix it right away at a lower cost very pleased would definitely call again if ever I had another problem.

First class service!

First class service from my initial enquiry to completion of the job.
Fitted me in at very short notice - and gave me a quote I was happy with. After physically evaluating the issue when he got here, was honest enough to say the job would be significantly cheaper than the quote! (I'd have been none the wiser really).
Highly recommend. Reliable, honest, efficient... can't ask for more than that!
No doubt will be calling on you again mate. Cheers for the excellent service. 🖒🏾🖒🏾

Highly recommended

A trustworthy mechanic, changed my brake pads within the hour at a fraction of the price of competitors. Work was completed at a high standard and to top things off the mechanic was very professional. Highly recommended and I will be using his service again.

Not reliable but got there in the end.

Not the most reliable service but got there in the end.

Came to service my car but didn't have a card machine or stamp for the service book. Said he would come back but never did. When chasing he put the phone down and ignored calls. To get his attention I had to leave reviews on Google, Facebook and Trustpilot. His response was to initially get personal but eventually we arranged for him to come back and do what was promised. Which he did do.

Remap 2.0 TDI

Had my 2.0 tdi remapped and the difference in power is amazing. After having a previous car remapped by a different company this was much better than I expected. Quality job professionally done and quickly. Great work highly recommended.

Top notch service and top notch guy.

Thank you Elliot for such an awesome job. Despite being out of the area when I phoned you still came to my rescue at the earliest possible chance. A totally professional and very friendly service, and a very reasonable price, you can't ask for more. I would recommend Elliot to anyone. Ladies if you feel a little unsure about hiring a mechanic...choose Elliot, he's a great guy who you can trust. :)

Thank you Elliott!

After purchasing a complete shed of a car, that had all wheels different sizes, no handbreak, the door wouldn't open, battery was hanging off, mirrors were smashed, exhaust was falling off.. I called Elliott to me on the Thursday morning, he told me he couldn't get there until Monday earliest which was fine by me. He turned up on time, he looked around the car and I told him I wanted it fixing up and gave him my budget. He got the car towed away to his garage that day and Friday (today) I have picked my car up promptly this morning.. The car has been perfect this morning he even put new wheel trims on it for me! Thank you Elliott would defo recommend and would use him again. What a star. Said he would do his best and that's what he did!
