I visited this garage for the first time and had a very bad experience. The proprietor was upsettingly rude and turned me away. Also, the price quoted was 20% more than the garage that I then went to instead. read more

The Quadrant Shopping Centre is great as it is indoors and with our lovely welsh weather it is nice…read moreto be in from the wet and cold. There are loads and loads of shops in the Quadrant like HMV, Game , W H smiths , Clinton cards and Debenhams. It can get pretty packed out with shoppers at peak times and especially with the run up to christmas. At christmas there is usually a lovely christmas tree with lots of decorations which make it look really nice. The shopping centre always looks clean and tidy and you will always find a cleaner pottering around.
The Quadrant is like many indoor shopping centres across the UK. It mostly houses chain stores like…read moreHMV, Clarks, WHSmiths, Faith and so on and so forth. Shops you find in every town in Britain. The Quadrant itself is quite pleasant though, it has a predominently glass roof which allows it to be very bright and airy inside. There's a gallery cafe which looks out on to the main concourse of the shopping centre which is great for people watching. The bus station also comes out of one end, so finding it is very easy, and also you won't have far to carry bags to get a bus. Or even to get to your car if you choose to park in the NCP which also adjoins the Quadrant. You can also get to Swansea Market via an entrance in the Quadrant. The largest store by far is Debehams, which is a large department store and takes up almost an entire wing of its own. ANECDOTE: I was sick on the doors of Debehams one Christmas as I was shopping for presents and very rapidly came down with a virus. There are public toilets (free) upstairs which are clean and well maintained. The buidling is decorated according to the seasons, and a large Christmas tree is the focus during the winter.

On 08/10/2019 they called to say that my car was fixed, apparently it had a loose ignition cable and for this I was charged £72.00. My car was not fixed and remained exactly the same so I returned the car to them on 11/10/2019. On this date I was advised that following diagnostics I should replace the Lamba sensor. The cost on this occasion was £96.60. This did not improve the problem one bit. In short, I have paid £ 168.60 for expert advice and diagnostics but they have in fact diagnosed and fixed nothing.
Awful service. I've taken my car for MOT here on number of occasions, as have members of my family…read more On every occasion there have been a few minor 'repairs' on 'faults' to seemingly bump up the price we would need to pay. Their favourite one seems to be headlight re-alignment. I have decided to write this review today after going somewhere else. Guess what the headlights are correctly aligned! First time in 5 MOTs! Coincidence? I am only giving them 1 star as the garage is conveniently located. I did however drive 5 miles further for new place and I am more than happy I did!

However the new Swansea Central library compensates for losing it's listed building by a great expansion, amazing situation in County Hall(I'm now jealous of people working with that view!!) overlooking the sweep of Swansea Bay and the opportunity of books, cds, dvds in a far more comfy set up. Now the danger is in too much distraction when doing some study at the library, the view and opportunity of also having lunch and tea in the cafe next door!

Excellent for anyone wanting somewhere quiet to get on with some work. Excellent views over the bay.

Last year on my aging car my exhaust started blowing just before my MOT test was due, on taking it to an exhaust centre I was told it needed a new exhaust, I booked it in for the following day but as it is an older car I decided to take it up to DL with concerns in case there were any major repairs needed for the MOT(was it worth a new exhaust or coming to the end of its' life!). Don, proprietor of DL, came to the rescue as well as doing a pre mot check over which was positive, he informed me that the exhaust was only broken behind the silencer and could be repaired with a sleeve welded on at a minimal cost. That was last August and my car(touch wood) remains safely quiet thanks to the integrity of DL motors saving me a major cost just at the time of MOT test.

Used to use this Autocentre but no more! Last week my son…read morewas quoted £150 to adjust the handbrake of his Fiesta, expensive he thought so decided to do the job himself and found there is only one nut at the brake handle! As this was following an MOT failure he replaced the rear brake shoes and brake fluid. But the Ferodo disbonded from one of the shoes on the way to the re-test leaving the car un-driveable. It was left for a quotation, £212 they said, at £76/hr for labour plus parts for replacement of both rear wheel cylinders, rear brake shoes and brake fluid. Instead, we had the car recovered home, replaced the wheel cylinders (neither of which were actually damaged) and the brake shoes were replaced under warranty. Whilst waiting another customer came in and had his car diagnosed with a broken front spring and bearing mount, his quote was about £180 which is probably fair but he should have been advised to change both front springs as a matched pair as a matter of safety and good practice. When I asked about this, I was told the 'company' did not want a reputation for advising people to spend money un-necessarily and so no longer made such recommendations. Many people regard Halfords as experts in their field and trust them to keep their families safe! Halfords, you should be ashamed of yourselves! Far better to support your local 'man in a van' with a pre-MOT service, get the car tested, and if it fails, have it recovered to your man's workshop! Simple.....(?).

I expect diagnosing and sorting this would normally take two hours, but they had my car for two days, so I had to take the second day off work. The gentleman said he was going to diagnose the issue and sort it. I expected it could be the steering rack inner joint as it was an advisory on previous MOT, but they changed the outer joint and my drivers side suspension arm, which was perfectly fine. The gentleman said it was all sorted, the steering is great. Get car back and its exactly the same, play in steering wheel. Didn't do a wheel alignment, which would have been the cheapest and best place to start, no diagnostic fee charged, so noone diagnosed anything they just did a few things, hoping they would work. Labour is £60 an hour. Wouldn't go back here if someone paid me

There are machines on each level to 'pay and display' but those with blue (disabled) badges get three hours free parking (normal charges apply after that). It's open seven days a week too. My only complaint about this car park is that many spaces are almost impossible to use as upright concrete pillars stand in part of them, taking up quite a bit of space. You can get a normal-sized car in but then can't open a door!

This is an open-air car park on one level with a lot of spaces, practically opposite the other one. It's not far to walk into town from here - just around the corner towards Tesco. Up to 4 hours it's only £2 (between 8.00am and 6.00pm) which is very good these days, and free for disabled badge holders.

It's an easy car park to find off the main roundabout as you enter the town - just follow signs. We always use this car park as it's so handy for the shops and not far to the promenade and sea front either.
