"Long story short: On holiday, got rear ended, insurance companies trying to work out if I could use the car or not, Tom at The MOT Centre had a look at my car and got it well and truly roadworthy so we could carry on with the holiday and sort insurance stuff out when we got back home. He literally dropped everything to fit us in. A proper holiday saving hero! Thank you."

"Great service and attention to detail. Took my Audi A3 for towbar and 13pin electrics to be installed. Also installed cruise control as wasn’t part of the original configuration. Plus replaced a brake disk back plate and some other rattly bits (don’t know what but they did) all very professionally and good value. They clearly know their way around VAG cars. Thank you."
