What our Kent customers say
4.3from 262 Google reviewsβTheir quote was not only the cheapest but they were by far, the most professional of the garages we spoke to, including Ford main dealers. The service was excellent from start to finish.β
David P.Ford Ranger, 10-speed Β· Kent branch Β· April 2026
βIt was suspected that my gearbox needed a complete rebuildβ¦ after extensive investigation it was found that the gearbox was working exactly how it should beβ¦ You don't find repair shops as honest as this one very often.β
Anthony V.Ford Kuga Β· Kent branch Β· January 2025
βRather than just sell me a new gearbox based on the previous diagnostics, they went above and beyond to help meβ¦ They saved me thousands of pounds and even called me the next day to find out the result.β
CharlotteKent branch Β· December 2025
βPassed by to get a price for a gearbox serviceβ¦ Was given an excellent quote then told the job could be done immediatelyβ¦ Was called an hour or so later to say job was done!β
Steve N.Ford Focus ST, Powershift Β· Kent branch Β· February 2026
βThey diagnosed the problem quickly, explained everything clearly, and carried out the repair with real professionalism. The quality of the work is outstanding, and my Range Rover is now driving better than ever.β
Rheanna G.Range Rover Β· Essex branch Β· June 2026
βThey recommended a service and oil change on ZF8 gearbox as an initial stepβ¦ Great advice and service which saved me a lot of money over a torque converter or gearbox rebuild.β
