Most people know that it's pretty much guaranteed you'll be forking out cash every time your car…read moreneeds to visit a garage, whether it's for a minor check-up, an MOT or a full-on service. Well mine's been into Cross Street Garage for all three in the last couple of months and yes, it has cost me significantly, but the friendly, honest and thorough mechanics there are the main reason I returned again and again. Terry, who runs the garage, is very open and up front about what they do: "We don't fit cheap parts" is his mantra, so you know that although you'll be paying a bit more than expected, it's much cheaper than going to a dealership for a service or alternatively buying cheap parts somewhere and therefore buying twice when they ultimately fail. They picked up on minor issues that should have been fixed in the four previous services I'd had at another garage, such as the headlights being wrongly aligned and the cabin air filter behind the glove box having never been replaced - it was full of grime. Fully recommend these guys for the peace of mind of knowing your car will run at it's absolute best.

Any car repair is going to cost and yes the guys use the best parts possible rather than cheap alternatives but i am happy to pay a few quid extra for a top quality job by people who are telling me the truth and not just trying to rack up extra costs. Seriously i would recommend cross st garage to anyone,very approachable friendly and above all honest. give them a try.... steve

I needed my tyres replacing and went and got a few quotes from various places in Leeds and none were a cheap as here. Also I was under the impression I needed 4 new tyres but when the chap began fitting them he told me one of the one fine and best to leave it saving me even more money. 5 stars highly recommend this place

Just a quick update from my previous review. Everything that I said before is still 100% factual…read more The company offers 5 star service and Simon the manager remains BRILLIANT! 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!!
