Purser & Luxford
I had previously taken my car to Purser and Luxford where they changed the Tensioner on my car…read morewhich broke a day after. 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!

David and his family business partner, picked up my car, methodically explored and correctly diagnosed the problem. They made every effort to reduce the total cost to me and went to great lengths to explain what they were doing. Honesty and integrity are the cornerstone of this business, There is one thing worse than an costly engine breakdown.. thats the feeling that it has been made more expensive by the garage.Thankfully I drove away assured that these "proper mechanics" had done a great job as cost effectively as possible. I do not write reviews, normally. but felt compelled to do so. Because honesty and integrity are increasingly rare comodities in business. Thanks Guys, Tony

Charged me £47+vat for labour, £30 for 2 litres of unipart pro s1700 5w40 engine oil (!!!) and £15 for oil filter - £100 in total. Went to work straight away and next day checked oil level as 9 litres for 3.0d engine seemed to much. Took dipstick out and oil level was far away above max mark!. Got back there to drop it to right level between min and max on dipstick. No one was happy. Feel overcharged for two extra unnecessary litres of engine oil that one was dropped down next day and another could be replaced with my oil. Not happy that they mixed oils. No refund given or offered. Unprofessionally service, too expensive. Not recommended. If 2 litres of their engine oil is £30 so 9 litres (that amount they put in my car) is £135!!! plus 1h labour £54 and their non brand oil filter will be round £200!!!!!!!! For that price I would definitely go to BMW Sytner the get right amount of oil, OEM oil filter, genuine stamp in service book and my car would be clean after serviceing by them! Stay away from Jordan Motors!

Another example of the amazing value they/he offer. The wing mirror on my Land Rover was clipped by another vehicle at speed and was knocked off and just hanging there. Quotes were crazy to repair it. Went so see Simon and he called to ask the cost of a replacement mirror which is what was recommended by others - £1,200!!! Then it would have gone be painted and installed. He said - bring it in Monday and I think I can fix it for you. Sure enough he did!! Cost £97 and 6 months later it is still perfect!!
