"I honestly cannot recommend Matty at Shafto Way Garage highly enough. He has looked after my Audi for years and has always been exceptionally helpful, honest and reliable. He genuinely goes above and beyond for his customers, always explains everything clearly and gives the best possible advice. His prices are fair, his knowledge is second to none, and I have always known that I can completely trust what he tells me. More recently, Matty gave me invaluable help and advice while I was searching for a replacement car. He took time out of his day to check things for me, answer all of my questions and steer me away from making the wrong choices. That level of genuine care and customer service is incredibly rare. If you want a knowledgeable, trustworthy and genuinely decent mechanic who cares about his customers, Matty is absolutely the person to go to. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone and I genuinely wouldn’t want to take my car anywhere else. An absolute credit to Shafto Way Garage… five stars honestly don’t feel like enough :) x"

"Excellent service on a Saturday morning after my bonnet wouldn't lock. I rang and the lad asked me to go round so he could have a look . From the phone call to leaving the garage took less than an hour, the bonnet was fixed. Brilliant service and really lovely mechanic"
