Gearbox fine, however they seem to have a big issue with the return of ones deposit?
Sent loads of emails, and was told it will be sorted.
But here we are nearly a month later. I know it's only £120 but it's my £120.

Absolute cowboys do not have a clue

Absolute cowboys do not have a clue, one of the worst most arrogant companies I’ve ever had the misfortune to use. Could not repair my auto blamed it on the vehicle. Going through a clsim back on Credit card DO NOT USE con artists and cowboys I hope they close down

Marc Chilton I have never dealt with…

Marc Chilton I have never dealt with such a unprofessional arrogant childish person. I requested an itemised invoice and he said they don't do that,he then suggested I did a 350 mile 5hour trip to collect it,he also said I would need a donar gearbox for a part so I said I would have the other parts he agreed, but when I went to collect the van there were no other parts they decided they were too worn ,surely that's my choice to be made.Have decided to go back to Trading Standards. Quoted up to £1800 ended up over £3500 with donar gearbox.

COWBOYS/ROUGE TRADERS

COWBOYS/ROUGE TRADERS Fitted noisy faulty discs and pads and refuse to change them for different ones. Been ongoing for weeks and they’re refusing to speak to their supplier to ask for different ones as they clearly have an issue. No customer service skills and just want to take your money and give you bad replacements and ignore when they’re faulty. DONT USE THIS COMPANY UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE RIPPED OFF

I called in and spoke to he team…

I called in and spoke to he team regarding my VW Golf as I was experiencing some issues. They reassured me that they could take a look and booked me in within a couple days which was great! Especially with the 1 hour time slot. Turned up on site and was greeted with friendly faces and the online system allowed me to let them know exactly what was going on with my vehicle. I waited in the reception whilst my car was diagnosed and the technician came out to speak to me once he had finished to let me know his findings. Rest assured it wasn't my gearbox but in fact my clutch which was a relief. I was provided with an estimate then and there, didn't feel like I was getting ripped off as a single mum who knows nothing about cars and told them I was happy to leave it with them and was told it would be a couple of days turn around from when it goes on the ramp. Dropped my car off in the Friday and had a call to say it was ready Wednesday morning. Couldn't be more happier with the service and the team were amazing, kept me updated to date and explained everything so that I could understand what was being done to my car. Highly recommend.

My BMW 1 series had a crunching 2nd…

My BMW 1 series had a crunching 2nd gear, which apparently is a common issue with these gearbox which is wasn't aware of.I dropped my car off on a Sunday evening posting my keys through the letter box, Ryan called me and let me know the keys were found Monday morning and the car was being test driven later that day.it was confirmed that the car did indeed need a new 2nd gear, they said they wouldn't be able to get the car in for 2 weeks (bit annoying but it is what it is liked the honesty).2 weeks comes round I drop the car off and little over 3 days later the car was ready for collection, only extra was it needed a new clutch and flywheel but I had a feeling it might do as far as I was aware it was on 96,000 miles and original clutch and flywheel.Car has been back for over a month and the shift is so smooth, love driving my car again now, honestly the guys where quick and efficient couldn't recommend them enough.IF YOU HAVE A GEARBOX ISSUE THESE ARE THE GUYS TO HELP!!!
