Great Service

Great customer service and friendly staff. Quick turn around my vehicle with minimum disruption to my working day.
My courtesy vehicle got a puncture from a loose screw only an hour after I collected it, your mechanic was on hand immediately and fixed in no time with no fuss.

I would highly recommend

Very professional service from James and the team.

I had issues with the van that was originally delivered to me, which was out of the Scunthorpe branches control, meaning to get this resolved, I had to take the vehicle to Scunthorpe on my day off, which wasn’t ideal.
The vehicle required some replacement parts, Cloudiu the technician thoroughly explained what was required and that the parts weren’t going to arrive for a few days, meaning another 40 mile round trip at some point to collect the vehicle.
James the branch manager, respected the inconvenience caused to me and managed to source me a replacement vehicle, one that I was very happy with.

I’m sorry to hear about the inconvenience you initially experienced and the disruption it caused to your day.

However, I’m really pleased that Cloudiu was able to keep you fully informed and that James was able to quickly arrange a replacement vehicle that you were happy with.

We really appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
