We have been taking our cars to Creightons Garage for servicing for over 13 years. Unfortunately,…read moretheir level of service has declined significantly over the past couple of years. I recently took my car in for a service and an MOT, and it failed the MOT twice. The person who checked the car said the reason could be many things and admitted that he did not know the exact cause. My car stayed at the garage for several days without any solution. I paid for everything they asked for, yet there was still no solution and no refund offered. I no longer recommend this garage for servicing. We have lost a great deal of time, money, and--most importantly--trust.

The price of their Petrol is extortionate. Only idiots fill up at Creightons.read more

Making a splash in the world of car washing in Downpatrick are these bunch of guys who are proving…read morethis place in a side street just up from the police station. There is a narrow little entrance but you would be surprised with the amount of space that is going to be in her, with a really large washing area. I have taken my girlfriend with her mum to get her car washed and they did it really fast and to a good quality whilst the ladies walked to the town centre to start their shopping and I looked after the car till it was cleaned and drove it to the car park to get it back to my girlfriends' mum! They start from £3.50 for a basic wash which is very reasonable indeed and you get good value from that , so the expensive treatments can be regarded as a luxury only. Fortunately my dad has recent acquired a really good power washer so I don't need to visit these sorts of places anymore!

This attended car wash and valet service has been in operation for quite a few years now. It is…read moresituated in a good area for business purpose as it is just off a junction which is access for several towns and villages in the Ards peninsula . It is very reasonable costing £5 for a wash and wax and it is always a very thorough job which is never rushed and door sills are always cleaned which for lady drivers is very important!. They also do steam cleaning for MOTand PSV checks. The car wash is operated by two people which makes it quick and efficient when there is a line if cars waiting which is common on a Saarurday. Opening hours are 9-5 Monday to Saturday which suites mist people. All in all its hard to beat this car wash , so if you live in the area or maybe out for a day trip you might wish to avail your car of this service and wash off all the muck from our lovely country roads .

Extreme Clean is a valet and car wash that goes the extra mile, yet another pun, I apologise…read more Anyway back to business, Extreme Clean is located at a crossroads between Bangor and Donaghadee, this means they get plenty of passing cars stopping in for a polish. It is also useful if you are with toddler who is petrified of the usual petrol station car wash machines, as it is all manual. Extreme Clean offer a car wash for £5 which is good value and they will give your car, van or lorry a coat of wax for an extra pound. One extra little thing they do is clean the inside of your doors and your alloys. I must admit that I was a little bit worried that I was going to get soaked when the attendant reached for the door handle, all those childhood super soaker moments came flooding back, but to my surprise I stayed bone dry and the inside of the door looked nice and shinny. The service was excellent, the wash took 5 minutes and the car was gleaming, we even splashed out on a coat of wax. Big spenders eh? The one other thing I learned about this business is that it sells gift vouchers far all its services including valet. So why not show someone how much you love/hate them by treating them to the ultimate car wash experience.

Located just off the A2 on the Belfast Bound side of the road this is a bit of a strange location…read morefor a petrol station although it always seems to be busy. It is sandwiched between a BP Garage and a cheaper Tesco's Petrol station just up the road. The main pulling power of this garage is the Spar and ATM. The Filling station boasts around 8 pumps, a hoover pint and an air station and has plenty of parking if you just want to nip in to the spar. The Spar is really well stocked selling fruit veg, magazine, newspapers, cigarettes as well as the usual household items. Not too many garages sell gas canisters and coal these days but this one does, worth noting, especially in the winter months. Serves its purpose but it's not going to win any prizes for value but it might for convenience.

They have a decent sized clothing section with 2 changing cubicles for trying on potential purchases, small toy aisle (so doesn't take too long to drag the kids along) and a reasonable selection of electrical goods. It has the usual butcher, deli & bakery counters. Shelves are generally well stocked and staff are willing to help you find what you are looking for. The off sales section is in the back corner and although not particularly big has a good selection of drinks. There is plenty of parking and an in store cafe. If tills are busy staff are usually quick to open up another especially when you have children in tow!

For many years I used to work nearby, and this would have been somewhere I called into most days and done the bulk of my weekly shopping here. They have a large car park outside, and a covered trolley bay and cash-point before you walk in. The store is large, well stocked, clean and spacious. I was able to get a lot of items here that were unavailable elsewhere. They do great lunchtime offers and they stock a range of sandwiches and flatbreads from a local Northern Irish company called Deli Lites, which are absolutely delicious, and it's always satisfying to know they are supporting local businesses. They also have a fantastic salad bar where you can make yourself a small, medium or large salad with a fab range of salads, pastas, boiled eggs, etc, or you can choose something hot from their deli counter. Their chicken fillet burgers are really tasty! This Sainsbury's also has an on-site cafe which I've eaten in a few times, and it's always been good!

My dad has a lot of contacts and his philosophy is to buy in cheap and pass them on at reasonable prices so he can have a good turnover of cash and cars. What differs my dad from most second hand cars sales is the after sales service. Most car sales will tell you it's your problem if something happens to your car after they sell you it, but my dad will always try and help you fix it , and for free. He also will offer pre MOT prices for terribly low prices, he just loves fixing cars. Payment is flexible and he will hold onto relatively small deposits to reserve cars and will accept both Euros and pounds. There is something for everyone here, so I endorse you come here, as it may indirectly increase my inheritance! ;D
