Had my car in for a service. Friendly staff and quick turn around. The picked up a few issues on a health check and said they’d call back with a quote for the work but never did so now gone elsewhere.

Referred to RL from another Plymouth garage that didn't want to get involved with diagnostics and repairs on our car. Great communication from Kev throughout, and resolved the issues on our BMW X3. Overall impressed with the service provided...took a while to get booked in but clearly worth the wait. Will now use for all ongoing work/MOTs/servicing

This garage is the best in Plymouth! We bought our car from them and have taken it for every service, MOT and any other necessary bits that need doing. Now it’s that time to buy another car and we will without a doubt be asking them to find us one. It’s amazing!
