Russell B
I did my apprenticeship at a garage in Swindon as I studied with Northstar College. After graduating I left and went to Charlie Browns auto services for 2-3 years. Following my time at Charlie Browns I went to work for Mr. Clutch for 3 years where I progressed from mechanic, to assistant manager, to store manager. After learning all I could from Mr. Clutch I decided to go self employed and also do mobile mechanic work, and I have been doing that for about 7-8 years now.

Russell accepted my booking of over £200 for brake pads. The pads have caused nothing but trouble starting with my ABS which I've now gotten fixed again over £200. Now I've had to get new pads fitted because as the current mechanic has told me over the phone they were cheap parts fitted incorrectly. They're breaking apart damaging my car. Use this company at your own peril.

Reply from Russell:

Hi jade
Sorry to hear about these issues
I can assure you these brakes were fitted correctly
The date above says they were done July 2019 if you would have let me know you had issues I would have replaced them but obviously they are out of warranty now

I can assure you all brakes come with the same warranty as the dealership and are fully tested by manufacturer to o.e standards

After spending nearly £600 on servicing and repairs , I still have some bulbs not working and a smell on start up. The parts for repair I cross referenced and I seem to have paid top dollar but was quoted half the price. Have been told by a friend in the trade I have paid too much. I thought it was steep so looked up the parts etc. The Labour was expensive considering that very little time was spent on the jobs despite 2 people doing the work. On reflection I probably should have taken it to a garage. The guy was nice enough but I felt uneasy that a major service was done in an hour.......
