  • "He was very friendly and explained clearly to me my options for the car repair."
  • "Thanks to Tony for delivering a prompt service and going above and beyond and sorting my admin work out too! All done with a smile and professionally."
  • "The guys are always courteous and go the extra mile."

Cons:

  • "Never been so disappointed with people who claim to know what they are talking about!!"
  • "Gave me a price to then say I only asked for tracking, was charging £50 just to align up the front wheels, Avoid at all costs, owner was extremely rude, spoke with no respect and had a lot of attitude.."

Pricing

Pros:

  • "They do first class work at a fraction of what the dealer will charge you."
  • "Drive In Service only charged for puncture which was £12 +VAT and they advised we will replace the tyre (new tyre installed) for free as this their tyres comes under warranty if you buy from them."
  • "DRIVE IN were also £130 cheaper than AUDI despite also fitting the same genuine AUDI parts."
  • "Good advice and quick turn around of work at a price that was way cheaper than other garages. definitely recommended."
  • "Price for repair was half what Mercedes would have charged."
  • "with regards to pricing, when I was quoted it was pretty much half the price the main dealer quoted me and I probably received a better service from these guys!"
  • "I was offered a choice of tyre and given great advice. I have a Jag and was dreading the cost of replacing a tyre but was very happy with the cost at the drive in service centre."

Cons:

  • "The quote was around 25% more than the other garage too, which although this was not the issue, is maybe a factor for others wanting to understand pricing."
  • "They replaced unnecessary parts in which didn't need to and then they asked me to pay them another £150 in order to sort the light out."
  • "They then changed a part for £110 which made no difference to the issue at all."
  • "MOT £29.99 1 CV BOOT CLIP £25 which are 90p online and 1 hours labor to free 1 rear brake £142."
  • "Was quoted 1300 -1500 but was told it could be even more. I got two other quotes from other places £570 and £640! Rip off merchants."
  • "Very expensive compared to other places."
  • "Absolutely furious £25 for a clip that cost 90p and takes seconds to fit."
