Squeezed me in with a very bad grinding in rear wheel. Wouldn’t let me drive due to possible danger. Found the fault, fixed it and gave it a service all in the space of 24 hours when they were already so busy. All the staff I came in to contact with were courteous and helpful including the driver Ant, who took me home after drop off. Thanks Pete, John and team. I will definitely be back.
