Reply from Marchwoods (Motor Engineers) LTD

We're disappointed to read this review.

We take customer enquiries seriously and make every effort to respond to quotation requests promptly. We have no record of an outstanding quotation request matching the details you've provided, so we're unable to investigate the matter based on the information in your review.

This is also the second one-star review you've left for our business over the past few years. While we respect everyone's right to share their experience, we believe this demonstrates that we are simply not the right business to meet your expectations.

As a result, we feel it is in the best interests of both parties that you seek assistance elsewhere, and we will not be offering our services to you in the future.

We wish you all the best in finding a garage that better meets your requirements.

Annual Service & MOT at Marchwoods

We have taken our motor vehicles to Marchwoods for years, for both servicing and repairs. Cannot praise Marchwoods enough and we are always happy with the excellent service given. A fast, friendly, highly professional and consistent service is offered. Thank you Marchwoods!

A very happy & loyal customer

I have used Marchwoods for many years now and would recommend them to everyone I meet. They are friendly yet efficient and the staff both in the garage and the office take the time to explain what needs doing and why. The workshops are all on display and are kept super clean and tidy. Prices are competitive too against other garages. A Stars all round!!!

RUDE & UNPROFESSIONAL

Telephoned this garage Monday for an estimate by Thursday had still received no estimate. Telephoned and spoke to the receptionist - what a rude, unprofessional individual - considering this woman is the first impression of the company personally I would give her her P45 and wave her goodbye!
Needless to say I will not be using this company I will be finding a reputable, reliable, professional company with staff that are not rude!

Absolutely superb

Absolutely superb, thoughtful, courteous service from an independent garage that cares about its customers. We’ve bought tyres and had our Toyota Auris Hybrid serviced here at highly competitive rates with impeccable quality of workmanship. Top class local business, worth supporting!

Highly recommended - great service and price

After seeing many other positive reviews, we recently tried Marchwoods for a major service rather than the main dealer miles away in Ashford. Marchwoods provided friendly and knowledgeable service from start to finish, and the same day home pickup and drop off service was really useful to us. The work done in line with the manufacturer's warranty requirements, but cost roughly half what the dealer was quoting. Thanks!
