DO NOT USE! £475 paid for work to be carried out only for the car to come back unsafe to drive.
I was referred to Paul by family after being towed to Birmingham following a clutch failure on the motorway.
My first impression was that Paul was of a professional manner and I was grateful he was offering of assistance on a bank holiday weekend. However, when the vehicle was returned after having a clutch and gearbox replacement it was highly apparent something wasn't right. Not only was there an high-pitched squeal from under the bonnet but also driving only 50 metres down the road I discovered the brake's were completely unsafe.
Paul was highly uncooperative and immediately defensive when I informed him of the issues I had. Working away for long periods of time, I had no option but to pay for another mobile mechanic to diagnose the fault and it could be seen that the brake servo pipe was snapped (accidentally I presume as it is flimsy, but still costly! And very obvious when driving) and that neither hose on the air intake manifold has been reattached correctly. Cost to make the car roadworthy again were to the tune of £120 (£40 part, £80 labour). Also, gear stick was attached wrong way round. read more
