Garage in Northampton, 7 years of experience

Clifton Garage is local garage in Northampton. We provide quality garage services including MoT and repairs.

“It is so refreshing to find a mechanic that will be transparent and helpful when things don't go right the first time. My car had several issues that occured after it's MOT, one of which was a returning problem that was supposed to have been fixed prior to the MOT. The mechanic not only corrected the returning issue but diagnosed the new problems then quoted for and fixed the problem within one working day. All of this was done with concise communitation and without ripping me off. As a female driver, it can be difficult to be taken seriously and not be taken advantage of by nechanics so this was a welcome change.”

“I was so impressed with Michael, he called me the day before to go over the issues with the car, this reassured me, as I was very worried about the outcome.
On the day he was due at 12, back contacted me around 8:30am and offered to come now, which was perfect.
He was polite and open and honest about the work that needed to be done, unfortunately I had to have my car recovered and the work completed elsewhere, at a larger cost.
By Michael will be doing the work, and so far he has been nothing but professional”

Garage serving Northampton, 18 years of experience

Been in the motor trade for 18 years . Started with working for a German car specialist wile getting my qualification .then moved on to different garages working on all make and model then got my mot licence .

“I recently booked an advanced Pre Inspection Report on a car that I was considering purchasing from a private seller. Dill, the mechanic, carried out the report the following morning so it was great to not keep the seller of the vehicle waiting and risk losing out on the car. Dill called me during and after the inspection and sent multiple relevant images. The car wasn’t quite as tidy as it had seemed in the advert and I felt that Dill gave me a more realistic appraisal of the cars condition, any work that could be expected in the future and any immediate mechanical points that I needed to be aware of. This meant that I could assess whether or not to go ahead with going to view the car (3 hours away) and what I would be willing to pay for it. I ended up buying the car at a price that reflected its condition and any work required. Dill’s assessment, communication and willingness to investigate areas of the car that were particular to my needs played a large part in having confidence in the buying process. Thank you Dill!
I’ve bought two cars privately using clickmechanic.com for a PPR so I would recommend them.”
