“I had my clutch and fly wheel replaced for £1300. The team were great managed to get a garage to conduct the work on short notice and it’s a big job on my car.

A few places had refused and I was getting quoted £1500 and work to take a couple of days or more.

I was eventually allocated Sefton hire Ltd also know as practical. They were good. Called to update and confirm dates/times etc.

I went to collect my car but the car was showing new issues which weren’t present before. They kept my vehicle for a further day to find out the faults. All was resolved quickly.

The mechanics Steve was actually really nice as initially I was quite upset the car had new faults and I didn’t know how I would pay for it but they sorted it without more costs which I was satisfied by.

My car seems to be running fine and I’ve have a few long drives so hopefully the clutch will be able to do a lot more mileage for me before I have to replace it again.

Thanks”
