Just to say great service when my suzuki swift gearbox failed rebuilt for less than 1/3rd price my own garage was set to charge me they called me in to see the damage and kept me informed of progress gave me what they called a "contract price" and stuck to it a bit unusual in my dealings with garages many thanks

carol murray, egremont

Perfect job done on my kia gearbox price 25% of dealer quote for a new gearbox would have been ten out of ten if they gave out loan cars and job took 2 days longer than they said it would

Hi Many thanks for your comment as i explained we are only a small company and our insurance premium for loan cars would be over the top. our last loan car was written off by a young lady who attempted to climb a tree at bassenthwaite with it i am sorry it took 2 days longer to repair but remember you asked us to fit a cam belt while it was in Regards Ian

Hi Many thanks for your comment, with regards to the issue of loan vehicles we are only a small organisation and cannot afford to give vehicles on loan due to the high cost of insurance and please remember there is no such thing as a free car it would added to your bill the last loan car we gave out was a very clean mondeo the young lady was behind the wheel when she shortened it by two feet in an argument with a tree at bassenthwaite Regards Ian

Very expensive. Make sure you get a firm price beforehand if you get stuck with using these guys. Might be just as well going to a main dealership otherwise.

Unfortunatly gearboxes are or can be very expensive to repair many customers could save themselves quite a lot of money if they had the repair carried out at the first sign of trouble instead of waiting for that slight noise to end up as a totally wrecked gearbox also the removal and refitting of some gearboxes can add up to a full days labour due to the removal of all the ancilliary equipment and subframes etc before you even get it on to the repair bench
