“Mark was superb, very professional and quickly identified the problems that were causing the coolant leak that my car had as being a faulty water pump and a split pipe leading to the thermostat. (It should be noted that I had taken the car to a Vauxhall Main Dealer the previous day, who had told me that the thermostat and housing were the problem and they had quoted me £857 to replace those - although there was nothing wrong with them). I would certainly use this service again and would strongly recommend Mark.”

“Zoltan seems to have a wealth of experience with cars and certainly knows his way around a bonnet. Completed a pressure check prior to taking on the work requested (Just in case it was not the real issue). I applaud him for his due diligence and work ethic. Never had a mechanic who actually cares about the work he carries out, all credit to Zoltan. Hope I never have to call on his services again, but if I breakdown I hope he is there to fix the issue. A credit to the industry.”

“Pervaiz took on the job on Good Friday, which in itself was very kind. He arrived when he said he would and was thorough. He carried out a more tricky than usual thermostat replacement as it was deep inside the engine of my ford focus. He was friendly and talked me through what he had done and made absolutely sure it worked correctly. Hi am a very happy customer. I will definitely be using the service again if I find myself in need of a mechanic in future.”
