Had a MOT done on the Monday 2nd June they told my mom it failed on front brake pads and would cost £200 my mom went ahead with it and then told me I realised we had been ripped off when on the bill it says brake pad £59. I rang up straight away and I asked him was the brake pads top brand to which he answered no they was cheap I said was they from dealer or aftermarket he said aftermarket I told him I work for carspares he then put the phone down. I know brake pads do not cost £59 on the aftermarket. I have been back to the garage to get answers and got fobbed off by the mechanic when I questioned him he kept on looking around the room and repeatedly saying if your mom wants to query the bill tell her to come down (I had the bill on my phone) I shown the mechanic and he said yeah but you could be lying (even though I have proof). I have got in touch with tradestandards and have tried to sort it with Pete himself on email to see wether i can get a part refund to which he said the brake pads was the best priced ones and they add abit of money on top for staff and business. to which I replied "That is not what your mechanic said and can you send proof of how much the brake pads cost". (That was 2 days ago and still not have had a reply). I have told and asked other garages in and around them how much they would charge they said £120.

As a woman, you're always a bit worried about doing car stuff on your own/wondering if you're going to get ripped off. I've used Car Care for over 9 years now and I completely trust them. Pete always takes the time to explain what's gone wrong, why, how I can prevent it in the future and what the best solution would be. They have helped me with my selection of second hand cars over the years, and helped me get every last mile out of them. Would 100% recommend!

Great service, great price. The owner went out of his way to ensue he gave a good service even though he had some important personal commitment at the time. Great guy.

Excellent and honest customer service. Peter took time to explain the problem. Did not charge for the diagnostics. Was highly recommended by a colleague and is truly a good garage. Will recommend to others.

Carcare are great! Never been let down by them and the prices are spoton. Nice lads and hardworking. I trust them with any car I have and have been going to them for around 9 years. Thats how you know they havent let me down yet. If I had to be picky the place could do with a spruce but besides that you cannot complain.

Worst - don’t trust them. The owner brings drawings and print outs of spare parts to wrongly advice you for bigger unnecessary works and bills. I had to pay £1250 which other mechanic advise was totally not needed. Then, they don’t accept credit card payments - which was never told in advance. Only positive is the reception room has a good air con on a sunny day. Probably set for the owner.

Absolutely wonderful people, helped us out no end yesterday when we couldn't get our spare wheel on, and didn't even want to charge us. It's great to know that genuine, caring people like this are out there. Thank you so much. I highly recommend them to anyone.
