Reviews Summary

Customers are overwhelmingly positive, frequently praising friendly, professional staff, clear communication (regular updates and mechanic videos), speedy turnarounds and good value for MOTs and services. Many reviewers name-check helpful individuals (Ethan, Emma), note useful extras like loan cars and complimentary cleans, and say their cars were returned looking and driving like new. A minority reported issues with unexpected price changes, high hourly rates or pushy upselling, incorrect mileage on service records, missed inspection items and underwhelming valets, suggesting billing, consistency of checks and the standard of the complimentary clean could be tightened.

Most reviewers rate the garage very highly, praising friendly, professional staff, quick turnarounds and good value for dealer-level work. Customers frequently mention clear communication (including video health checks and automated check‑in), efficient MOTs/services, competitive prices and extras like washes or loan cars. A small number, however, describe problems with honesty or quality — disputed or expensive tyre work, incorrect fault reports, missed promised valets, cash-payment issues and occasional delays — which account for the few low scores.

What’s the Difference Between an Air Con Regas, an Air Conditioning Recharge and an Air Conditioning Service?
The biggest difference between an air con regas/recharge and an air conditioning service is the amount of work they include. An air conditioning recharge is just another way to refer to an air con regas; they are one and the same.
During an air con regas, a technician will use a specialised machine to remove the old refrigerant, usually check for any leaks within the system and, if all is well, refill the system with the right amount of fresh refrigerant and lubricating oil.
During an air conditioning service, a technician will complete the same recharging process but will give your system a proper inspection. This usually includes:
- A full visual inspection of the system.
- Completing a pressure test.
- Checking that the entire system works properly (all the switches, thermostats etc).
- Checking the temperature of the condenser while it is in use.
However, this can vary from garage to garage. All these extra checks mean that a service is more expensive than a recharge.
