Friendly welcome and a wealth of knowledge as well as the ability to "fettle" if a part is missing or not to hand. A proper motorcycle engineer. read more

I visited this store earlier today with the intention of purchasing a Honda CBF125 at the price…read morelisted, assuming it was as described on the eBay sales listing and that it had no obvious mechanical issues. I called this morning and was provided some useful information by a lady over the phone and advised I'd be looking to test ride the bike. I also requested I left my number so they could contact me should anyone else purchase the bike in the meantime, as I'd be travelling for an hour to get there. Upon arriving, a garage with a number of bikes were on display, they had kept this one within easy reach where they powered the bike up, showed us the books they had and allowed us some time to check it over. This was to be my first bike as I've only recently passed my CBT, but I brought my dad along who is a long time rider to assist with my purchase. So far so good, the bike was sold in my mind, it looked in good condition and there was nothing obviously wrong with it. We asked if we could take it for a test ride and this was where the problems began. An older gentleman stepped up and joined the conversation with an instant agressive attitude. In 'polite' terms, he would have been advising that due to the weather being bad (it was raining), he did not recommend we took the bike out for a test ride because the chances were high that we could come off and his insurance would not cover it. He didn't say it like this though. Using a barrage of profanity he approached us immedietly on the defensive "No, you can't." "Buy the bike, then take it for a ride" "It's fine, otherwise I wouldn't have passed it's MOT this morning" with a mixture of various swear words I won't use here. He only appeared interested in getting his point across with as much foul language as he possibly can fit inbetween the real words. We advised that our intention was to place a deposit on the bike and collect it at the weekend, but only if the bike was suitable. We would even have been happy paying a deposit and test riding it on the weekend we came to pick it up, but by this stage, I'd heard enough for me to never want any dealings with this garage. They lost out on a guaranteed sale today, and any future ones. Unless you're happy purcahsing your bikes/parts/safety items from someone who can't string a sentance together without using profanity, and a clear disregard to professionalism, this place is not worth considering. I could only imagine what their aftercare service is like in the even of an issue with the purchae. Absolutely disgraceful customer service and disgusting manners. I'd strongly advise against visting this business.
Dit Motorcycle Repairs
I have to say, DiT were excellent for me. I was recently traveling from London to Scotland. Half…read moreway up the M1, on Friday night, my indicators stopped working - probably the relay. I stopped off in Sunderland (I have a friend that lives there) and spent Saturday morning calling several motorcycle repair places. They all said "sorry, don't work today" or "sorry, fully booked" or "sorry, don't have the parts". DiT called me back about 20 seconds after I left a message and said to come in and take a look. Sorry, I didn't catch the owners name! Anyway, I went to the shop where he looked at the bike and diagnosed that it was (as suspected) the relay. Unsurprisingly, he didn't have a replacement relay for my bike lying around, but he made one up for me from other components. AWESOME. I was (and am) very grateful to him. Top bloke. Great mechanic.

Having used dealers who charge the earth when servicing motorcycles I decided to give this little…read moreshop a look, as my ST1100 was desperate for a service. From the outside it looks like a junk shop for motorcycles on the inside it also looks like a junk shop for motorcycles and Patrick the Italian (sounds like one) proprietor is dressed to work on motorcycles. So all in all the whole experience of getting my bike serviced was initially OMG. Let me tell you, what Patrick doesn't know about bikes isn't worth remembering, whilst I was at the shop a few other bikers called in for bike repairs & servicing. Appearances can be deceiving & I believe places like these must be kept alive in this time of austerity. Patrick did exactly what he said he would do & recommended other work to keep the bike tip top without the pressure of salesman ship like I have found in dealerships. I will certainly be returning to have Patrick work on my bike. Looks like a 1 star establishment but deserves a 4 from me. Reasonable price to boot.
I had just purchased a BMW 7 series, which the garage said they would have valeted for me when I…read morewas going to collect the car upon arrival I noticed straight away that the car had not been valeted to any high standard. I found Td international on Google when I got the car back and gave Chris a call he offered to come a view the car and go through various options for the vehicle, after having a good chat with Chris opted to get a protection detail which he booked in to do at my office the following week. Chris turned up when arranged and just got on with sorting out my car. When Chris came and nocked to say it was done I had a look at the car and was amazed to see the difference. The work Chris did was faultless, a massive improvement from the dealership. I then organized with Chris for the car to be regularly washed and top up detail to be carried out through out the year. A few months later I also purchased a BMW Mini for my wife, which was very scratched, and not in the best condition so I asked Chris what he could do. We agreed that the best package to correct the mini was a Gtechniq gold detail that he booked in for his next available date. I simply dropped the car off and three days later he brought the car back to my front door and the car looked a million times better scratch free with the best protection to keep it that way. I would recommend the services of TD international and Chris to anyone in a heartbeat. Anyone who seeks the ultimate finish and protection out there should check these guys out.
WOULD DEFINATELY RECOMMEND…read more I was ringing around for a price for 2 new tyres for my 03 Renault Scenic. I contacted a number of Tyre places in Sunderland and was told to ring Thompson Road Motors by a member of my family. I spoke to the owner who was very nice and the price he quoted me was much less than everyone else. I went over and they changed both of the tyres and balanced the wheels straight away, they were really friendly and talking away to me, the customer service was really good and the price of the tyres was fantastic.
