Andrew C.Torquay branch · July 2026
“Very helpful and knowledgeable… They explained in detail what they were going to do along with the potential outcomes. I am pleased to say that the van is now all back together and driving perfectly.”
Matthew N.Fiat Ducato · Torquay branch · September 2026
“Their 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.”
David P.Ford Ranger, 10-speed · Kent branch · April 2026
“It was suspected that my gearbox needed a complete rebuild… after extensive investigation it was found that the gearbox was working exactly how it should be… You don't find repair shops as honest as this one very often.”
Anthony V.Ford Kuga · Kent branch · January 2025
“They 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.”
Rheanna G.Range Rover · Essex branch · June 2026
“They recommended a service and oil change on ZF8 gearbox as an initial step… Great advice and service which saved me a lot of money over a torque converter or gearbox rebuild.”
Jonathan S.BMW 430, ZF 8-speed · Dorset branch · June 2026
