    Absolutely appalling! You come out with more problems than you went in with! they are thieves! Mo…read morethe owner had my car for about a week to fix the AIr-con. He charged me £450!! to only have it fixed for one day?!! In the process killed my battery also! Which cost another £80?!! When i went back to him he said theres no warranty on the air-con! There's a leak in the cylinder?!! so what did you charge me £450 for Mo?? Also I had previously had my car serviced with him & found out down the line that he had not refilled my oil after draining it to replace?!! I was driving my car without oil!! Previously to that had i to have my handbrake repaired and turned out he broke my car stereo casing & the sport button on my gear lever had stopped working!! If you're a lady do not use this place! he takes advantage of women and causes more issues for you to keep coming back!! You're a disgrace to the muslim community!

    Im always sceptical of reviews on here but thought id try this garage as the only one recommended…read morein the area. Turning up and seeing taxis waiting for works seemed a good sign and I think it was. The car passed its MOT with a list of recommendations I cant argue with. The owner ran through what I need to do and when and said to do it in pieces as and when I can afford it, zero pressure. Nice guy, seems genuine and honest - wish id used him all along and not Kwik Fit. Very good opening hours, polite and knows his stuff. On a selfish note I hope others keep using him so he remains open so I can keep using him!

    It's not often that one can give a service garage a five star write-up, but JEM is an unusual…read morehybrid English/Japanese business which fortunately manages to maintain Japanese standards of efficiency, courtesy and cleanliness. Located near a Sainsbury's off the main road between Kilburn and the M1, the site comprises a yard full of used 'grey-import' Japanese cars and a large workshop and office. Unusually, there is a well-equipped waiting room on top of the office where you can have coffee and hot drinks, read the papers and watch your car being worked on in the spotless workshop below. JEM specialises in Japanese cars - mainly Toyotas and Lexus, but they will accept others. If you have a Toyota or Lexus, they are considerably cheaper and more efficient than the main dealers. The only drawback is that they are about three miles from the nearest Tube station - Hendon Central - but they will happily run you there or pick you up.

    DO NOT USE THIS GARAGE !!!!…read more Brought my car In to have lights looked at and rear brakes paid £54 pounds for them to do so Received Email the next day after with a quote for nearly £1000 For both ballasts to be replaced and light bulbs Disc and pads also Got seconds opinion elsewhere to find that rear brakes are fine and it's not the ballasts or light bulbs it's a wiring issue So I phoned jem Lexus and spoke to the incredibly rude Mubiana Liboma the Service Advisor i dealt with when I brought my car in he said what do you want me to do then said they took my wheels off and took pictures of the brakes unfortunately for him I watched from the MOT viewing window and a torch was shined in that's about it so I explained this and he said oh that's what he meant got aggressive and defensive and when I asked to speak to the manager he hung up on me NOT how you treat customers.

    While vacationing in London (from Chicago IL, US), my wife and I wanted to rent bikes for a ride…read moredown to Brighton, where my wife was born. We landed on About Town as it was just outside London proper (we didn't want to battle city traffic) and seemed to have a good selection of bikes for hire. We couldn't have been more satisfied with our experience! About Town is a small, but very complete and professionally operated establishment. We handled all of our preparations and reservations via email, to which the About Town staff (Anna and Mike) always attended to promptly. While my wife was disappointed that her Ducati Monster 696 wasn't available, she settled for a Honda CBF600 while I reserved a BMW F650GS. On the day of our rental, we took the train out of London to Wadsworth and somewhat apprehensively showed up with helmets in tow to the About Town shop. Our fears were quickly put to rest when we were greeted by Anna with a warm hello and were quickly walked through our paperwork while our bikes were rolled out front. Mike walked us through the bikes, gave us directions out of town, and we were ready to head out. As an added bonus, due to threatening weather that day, Mike spontaneously offered and threw in (at no charge) a top bag and 2 sets of rainwear (including one slicker off of his own bike!). Now that's the kind of service you don't often find these days. And it's that kind of service that made our experience with About Town so pleasurable. Needless to say, we highly recommend About Town. (And we also recommend the ride down and back to Brighton!) We look forward to a return trip, where we can hopefully have more time to tour the wonderful roads of England.

    Sometimes it takes a problem for one to fully appreciate a companies commitment to service…read more In preparation to my visit to London, I contacted several bike hire businesses, and being on a tight budget, I was looking for a deal. Companies promoting "budget bikes" were not helpful when I asked for details, so I decided to contact About Town and pay what it took to get just the bike I wanted, a Triumph T100. The bike ran like a dream, and was in good condition. However, on the morning it was due back at the shop, I was unable to start it. Assuming I had done something to run the battery down, I got the assistance from a neighbour to boost it. I contacted About Town to let them know of my dificulties, in the hope that they would not charge me for an extra day when the bike was returned late. After some time, we got the bike started, and I set off to bring the bike back. Unfortunately, the GPS brought me to the wrong place, and frustrated I stopped to figure out where I was and how I could get to where I was going. When I tried to resume my journey, the bike would not start again, so I once again called about town and told them of my troubles. The bike was at this point over 2 hours late, and I was very concerned that I would be charged for an extra day. They sent a truck to pick me up right away, and when he arrived we discovered that the problem was with the starter switch. They were very apologetic, and seemed almost disappointed that I was unable to accept a different bike for another day at no charge. They gave me a substantial discount, and went above and beyond to ensure that I left a satisfied customer. I am very impressed to their commitment to customer service, and I hope to be able to rent from them on future visits to the UK. P.S. They didn't know it at the time, but I am the president of a riding club in Toronto with a membership of 800+. I will be giving a strong recommendation on our website as well.
