“Great service from Mohammed and his team, old mechanic couldn’t fix electrical fault on my Astra, took me hours to get to work via public transport due to it, read reviews and thought will give these guys a try! So glad I did! Car fixed and drives great and they didn’t rip me off, thanks so much!”
