Joe managed to book my car in straight away and carried out a really thorough inspection before purchase. He even sent me a detailed video of the underside (something I’d never normally get to see), talking me through everything clearly and in a way I could understand. He also gave it an extensive test drive and ran full diagnostics to check for any hidden issues. The communication was outstanding, the service above and beyond, and the pricing very fair. An honest, professional garage I’d recommend to absolutely everyone!Posted on Tomos GwynTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I always recommend him to all my friends and family 10/10Posted on Michael JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently used the garage for a clutch replacement. Joe is a courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable mechanic. He explained the problem to me thoroughly, setting-out details of the work to be done, together with a cost estimate (which was a really accurate prediction). The work was carried quickly and efficiently. A major, positive service provided in the Cardiff area is that a customer’s car is picked up from their home and returned when work on the car is completed. What a bonus that is!! Thank you, Joe, for a very a very hassle-free experience.Posted on Joe CameronTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe's a top bloke!

Our used car mechanic inspection is detailed and methodical. We inspect your vehicle as if we were considering purchasing it for ourselves. Here’s exactly what you’ll receive as part of the service:
We check the bodywork for signs of accident repair, overspray, panel misalignment and corrosion. The chassis and underbody are examined for structural damage or rust concerns. Tyres are inspected for uneven wear, which can indicate alignment or suspension problems.
After inspecting the exterior of the vehicle, we’ll review the internals. We look for leaks, assess belts and hoses, and check for warning lights and fault codes. We’ll also assess the health of the vehicle’s battery.
Once the stationery checks are complete, we’ll take your vehicle out on the road to see how it performs. Standard things we note here include brake performance, steering responsiveness, clutch condition, and gearbox functionality.
We review all prior documentation from past MOT and services. This allows us to flag any previous issues with the vehicle, so you don’t have any nasty surprises post-purchase.
Once our inspection has concluded, we’ll provide you with a clear report outlining our findings and advice on whether to proceed with the purchase, renegotiate, or terminate the purchase. This is not technical jargon. It’s clear guidance to help you decide.
