Garage in Thornton Heath, 20 years of experience

I am a highly experienced mechanic with over 20 years in the field, specializing in a wide range of vehicle repairs. As a qualified MOT tester, I handle Class IV and VII MOTs, as well as servicing and diagno...

“This mechanic was amazing. He's saved me from having to pay out loads more money on a van that the seller told me was 'fine'. I'm very happy with the way he conducted himself, he was knowledgeable, punctual, made sure I was kept in the loop of what he was doing and why, he was friendly and approachable and I felt like he had my back when the seller tried to tell me why things were the way they were and that they were easy fixes. Had the mechanic not been there, I would have taken the sellers word as gospel and totally been scammed. Thankyou. I will use click mechanic again as the whole process was easy and made the stressful process of checking a van before buying feel like a breeze to navigate.”
