Speedy Professional service
I had a claim and was very impressed at service.
Collected vehicle on the Monday and was ready to be dropped back on the Friday
I was given a courtesy vehicle at same time they collected my vehicle and vehicle was back with me so much quicker than expected after hearing horror stories about how long vehicles are taking to be repaired.
Kept me updated all throughout with position on repairs via text too
Staff were friendly and knowledgeable cannot fault them

To day wing mirror fell out of its housing. If it was not for the wire connected to it, it would have fallen on the floor and broken. I forgot to remove a phone holder from the air vent grill which went missing
