“Had a great experience with Tadstar. Due to my working hours its difficult to get my car into a garage and then collected from there after work as they all seem to open/close at the same times I start/finish work. So having my car picked up and dropped off again by Tadstar really helps out. Very efficient service. Great prices. Talking with Richard he's clearly very passionate about cars and knows what he's talking about. 100% would recommend that u book ur car in here.”
