Purser & Luxford

I then took it back for replacement where it again broke a shortly after. Finally the situation was resolved after the hassle, I had. I even had to tow the vehicle myself! I then decided to take my car there for a MOT as I had done previously and on this occasion I had a very bad experience. They assessed it and failed it on its MOT and they tried to charge me half an hour labour for apparently needing the clean the mechanism on my seat belt, well that's what the sales guy initially told me. Turns out that was a lie and it was just stuck behind my boot which took me 30 secs to resolve (they changed this on the paper work before I got there.). They also tried to charge me £19.00 for a wiper blade I can buy from any factors for £4.00 and £10.00 for a bulb I can also buy for £4.00 myself. However after doing the work myself which also involved replacing a headlight I took it back for a free re test (that I had to negotiate for) and they told me they had to adjust the headlight aiming on both lights and re fit the headlight bulb I replaced. When I said can I just pop the headlight back in properly he angrily told me if you do that I will charge you for a full MOT! Which I found quite ridiculous and an excuse to charge me an additional labour cost. In the end for both popping a headlight in and adjusting the aiming on the headlights which took all of 5 mins (if that) as I watched him do it. They charged me £22.00. Most garages where you often take your car wouldn't normally charge for this at all. Avoid this company like the plague. I have had nothing but hassle with them and my family who also take their cars there won't be doing so anymore!

The first time I took the car here for an MOT it passed first timehooray. Have just taken it for the second year running they had to fail it as a bracket on the suspensionhad become unclipped (and damaged part of the suspension) and would need replacing. They booked the car in for the next morning to do while i waited and i was quoted around the 60 mark which I felt was more than reasonable. I duly took the car in the next morning and waited. When the mechanic came in to give me the bill i was toldits OKwe fixed it, didn't need the partand only charged me 10!!!!!

Booked an A service meaning a full service and asked for brakes to be checked as high pitched squeel when braking. Called to tell me car was ready and told nothing wrong with brakes as 'there brand new' told them they had been on for 2 years as they fit them please check properly. Said they would take for a test drive (why wasn't this done already?) called me back a few hours later and advised it was ready to pick up. Got there earlier than I said I would on the phone as they said they shut at half 4 when Google says 5. I turn up and they are taking it for 'a test drive' (2 people with a jump pack) 1 came back (meaning they used my car as a run around). He got back and said they might have something stuck in them just drive it off. (Firstly if you removed the brakes during your check when you said they were "brand new" this would be gone surely!) Secondly I asked if they checked them during the service which I was when I was advised they just changed the oil and it was booked for a B/minor service. Looking at paperwork only oil and filter and plug was changed. In what world do you only change oil during any service look online at what an actual B/minor/2 - check lights, exhaust, brakes, , fluids and possibly belts and change air&pollen filter Can confirm non of this was done and no health check sheet provided.

There were no issues with the service, however I am not exactly an expert when it comes to cars :) Still going strong so I suppose it was OK. One thing that did annoy me was that when I took it for an MOT 3 weeks after the service they failed my car because of a tyre, they did not pick this up when they did the service and I don't exactly do a lot of distance in 3 weeks. They did also fit a waterpump to an older car that I had (I supplied the parts and they fitted it) which was quite reasonable.
