MOT booked at short notice

Used these guys at short notice for an MOT because my usual garage was temporarily closed. There was good availability for the job at short notice with plenty of time slots to choose. MOT started and completed while I waited with free coffee and Wi-Fi in the reception area. Sadly car had a bad tyre cut that was not visible to me due to it being on the inside of the tyre. Fortunately for me the garage had a good range of replacement tyres which were fitted there and then enabling my car to pass the test ready for a long journey the next day. I found the staff friendly and helpful. Price was fair, even for the tyres which I would normally shop around for before buying.

I had my car MOT'd on the Wednesday

I had my car MOT'd on the Wednesday, it failed. But it was all fixed and sorted by the Saturday lunchtime. The service I received was superb and I can't fault them at all. Prices were very reasonable as well. I will be back to use them again, but hopefully not too soon!!

Avoid

Disastrous customer service. Rude duty manager with no manners, short of employee, took just under 2 hour to change four new tyres and front wheel alignment. Not going back again

As a first time customer at this garage…

As a first time customer at this garage I did not know where to park as I couldn’t see the reception sign. I had briefly stopped just before the garage entrance because I was unsure where customers were expected to park. Before I had any reasonable opportunity to check or move, the manager came rushing towards me and addressed me in an aggressive and confrontational manner, stating words to the effect of “park up over there,” while also pointing with his hand to reverse my car to go back. His aggressive behaviour made me feel very uncomfortable, felt unsafe and at one point I felt he was going to kick my car or attack me. As I slowly started to reverse my car he closed the garage entrance with metal chain and as he turned around I heard him say swear words (F*** word).

Later that afternoon, at approximately 4:30pm, I telephoned the tyre shop to raise my concerns. The call was answered by the same individual, who identified himself as person in charge( acting manager).Rather than addressing my complaint professionally, he denied any wrongdoing and instead accused me of almost running him over — an allegation I strongly dispute. I found his response dismissive and further indicative of poor customer service.

I found this behaviour completely unacceptable and highly unprofessional. At no point was I obstructive, nor was I refusing to move my vehicle. I was simply attempting to establish the correct parking arrangements. There is no justification for staff — particularly someone in a managerial position — to speak to customers in such a rude and intimidating way.

This incident reflects very poorly on your business and fell far below the standard of customer service I would reasonably expect. Never going back to this tyre shop again and highly not recommend.

Have used these ladies and gentlemen for years for all my cars because they do it without fuss or over complications. Have never had a reason to complain about their services and intend to use them going forward.

This garage deliberately inflated my bill with completely fabricated parts charges, adding a huge amount that I didn’t owe. When I challenged them, they tried to blame Euro Car Parts—an obvious lie. The overcharging was deliberate, the excuses were dishonest, and their lack of accountability is shocking. Avoid this garage—anyone using them risks being ripped off.
