REVSI MO - March 11, 2026

"Came to them in panic at after finding car had flat. They gave me an electronic portable tyre pump to inflate enough to bring the car to them. They inspected the tyre and said it was reaching end of its life - then fitted a reasonably priced new tyre within 30mins. Outstanding service - my first stop from now on."

Alex’s Creperie / Cafe - February 20, 2026

"Absolutely outstanding service! I was in a bit of a panic about my tyre and stopped by hoping someone could take a quick look. Even though one of the mechanics was on his lunch break, he kindly stepped in to help because he could see I was stuck. He checked everything thoroughly, sorted the issue quickly, and made sure I was safe to drive away all with a friendly, professional attitude. It’s rare to find that level of genuine care and customer service these days. I’m so grateful for the help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this garage to anyone. Thank you again for going above and beyond! Much love Alex"

J Freeman - February 08, 2026

"Twice this excellent garage has saved me! First time balance and tracking was off from somewhere else, I called in here as an emergency and they fixed the problem quickly and were so nice. The second time I had misjudged the height of a wall, squashed in a door and my window wouldn’t wind up. In pouring rain I drove to this garage and like knights of the road they removed the door panel and got the window working so I could safely get home. Excellent customer service and really good people."
