Quality of Work

Pros:

  • "Very happy with the quality of work done (and always was with my previous cars)."

  • "Work was completed very efficiently and reasonably priced."

Cons:

  • "Took it to another local garage which identified it as a wiring issue and had it repaired in less time than Cory's 'diagnostics' and also for less than the said 'diagnostics'."
  • "However they ignored this and proceed with the work."
  • "Yes, the mechanic may have the knowledge how to change rear springs but there is no professionalism and integrity in this company!"
  • "Unfortunately they did miss something on my mot due to where it was on the vehicle but were very apologetic."
  • "I was warned by others this garage puts the service prices in cheaply and then add on extortionate costs for minor works."
  • "After I got my car from there paying every single penny for the repair... on the first speed bump I heard knocking sound from the rear."
  • "Unprofessional liars and Rip Off service."

  • "Keeping me informed every step of the way with videos showing what was broken."
  • "They contacted me over Whatsapp to keep me updated and sent me a video of my Vehicle check."
  • "Great service from a lovely family run business, MOT, Service and brakes maintenance all carried out in a timely manner, I was kept updated the whole time via WhatsApp and Video Messages so I knew what work needed to be done which was really appreciated."
  • "They went above and beyond by sending video evidence of the repairs, ensuring complete transparency in the process."

Cons:

Value

Pros:

  • "Both me and my wife have been coming to Cory's Car Repair for a number of years. Reliable, trustworthy and good value."
  • "Repairs were undertaken at short notice over the weekend for urgent trip. Good value, friendly family business."

  • "Clear communication + prompt support + great advises + fair prices."

Cons:

  • "We was disappointed to note the bill came in at £214:60 as the guys allegedly had difficulty getting the bolt off the oil sump!."
  • "£1300 to release calipers, new pads and change shock absorber. Everyone was laughing out of me that I paid them this amount."
  • "I had to take my car as I needed to use it today and leave the wheel bearing issue not before paying over £800 for work done."
  • "Surely a tight bolt removal should not amount to a £50 increase in cost even if they had to weld it?."
  • "Very poor service and got charged £80 just to check air con leak and to change a small valve."
  • "When I went to collect the car I was met by a very rude mechanic and was charged £60 just because the car was put on a ramp and the wheels taken off."
  • "Extreme rip off. Will never come back again. Repair at Official dealer will be much cheaper."
