Just want to say what an incredible service I received at this garage. I was booked in for an MOT at the last minute, and they made everything so easy. I was able to drop my car off early and post the keys through the letterbox.
I was kept fully informed throughout the day. When I was told there were advisories, they took the time to clearly explain what needed to be fixed in order to pass the MOT. If I had sourced the parts myself, it would have cost over £1000.
They were honest, upfront, and genuinely had my best interests at heart. They managed to get the parts and fix the vehicle the same day for under £300, and I had the car back that evening.
Absolutely brilliant service, thank you so much.

Thanks for the kind words and for choosing us Beth
My son took his car in on 17 October, the car failed and he paid, but your photo posted two weeks ago says no pass, no fee. This should be mentioned

Hi there,
I’m very sorry for the misunderstanding, it appears that an old offer was still visible online and was a mistake by our marketing agency but this unfortunately had expired a very long time ago.
I understand your frustration with this and therefore sincerely apologise. Has your son asked about the offer at the time of booking and payment we would have happily discussed the error at the time, rather than learning of this through the review.
I would love to take the opportunity to discuss this directly with you so please contact me directly on:
07977 765818
Best wishes
Lee

Amazing experience at Fred’s. Fit me in for MOT last minute. Has a letterbox to post keys for early drop off outside opening hours. Plenty of room to park. Always answers voicemails and fb messages. Rang me soon as it was ready and talked me through advisories in detail. Full trust and faith in the team at Fred’s garage. Thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you for leaving us a review, we really appreciate it!
After realising my mot had expired. Lee fitted me in within a few days. He communicated any issues with us and kept us up to date at all times, advising us the whole time. I can’t thank and rate Lee and he’s team enough.

Always helpful and honest, keep my very old car on the road. A busy garage but that tells you that people keep going back because they do the work well.
