Wheel nuts
I had 4 tyers fitted after driving home 2 miles I got in the car the next day whilst I was driving there was a loud noise coming from the front when I inspected it the wheel nuts were all lose also locking wheel nut was missing spoke to them & was told it didn’t have one there was 1 on each wheel prior to going there very poor service
Disappointing
Everything was going well until I returned to my vehicle and saw the way they were handing it back to me.After failing mot the headlights needed polishing/cleaning,but they left sprays of white liquid all over the front of car.When I complained the guy behind the counter came out with a piece of dry blue paper and attempted to clean it off.
Not quite right
Two front tyres fitted.
Driving home, didn't feel quite right.
Checked tyre pressures after14 miles
Nearside tyre 36 psi
Offside tyre 28 psi !!!
Having corrected pressure, returned to centre following morning (10.00 Sunday) and asked for the tyre to be checked. Only one member of staff (reception) at this time. No one available to carry out check.
Pads, Disc and Callipers
Got my pads, discs and callapers done - such great service from Adam. Talked me through everything. Answered all my questions and made me feel like a valued costumer! Solid guy.
Amazing service
Everything was great. Patrick and his colleague that fitted my 4 new tyres did a great job. I will definitely recommend them, and I am definitely going back next time I need something. Thank you guys and keep the good and happy attitude as you are.
Dave and the team are amazing!!

Always ready to help and felt very valued as a customer!
Carried out work exceed estimate
Went in for a prebooked master service and MOT. Was told the car had failed emission tests, and would cost £45 an hour to clean up and regen. I gave authorisation for an hour labour and at no time given agreement to run up a huge bill.
At the point of picking up the car late in the day, was told it came up to a whopping 1.8 hrs labour charge (over £112) and £40 charge for the cleaner, plus MOT retest fee when retest should have been free. Tried to reason but was shrugged off with more costs. unfortunately you have lost me as a repeat customer when in the previous year the same engine restorer plus fuel cleaner all together only costs £31 to sort the MOT emission failure.
