    I can’t recommend matt highly enough. He went above and beyond to help change the wet timing belt on my car, a job that requires real expertise and attention to detail. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and completely transparent about the work involved. The job was done to an exceptionally high standard, and I was kept informed through a short and detailed video throughout the process, which gave me great peace of mind. His dedication, skill, and honesty truly stand out. If you’re looking for a mechanic you can trust with complex and important work, look no further. Outstanding service all round.

    I took my Ford Ecosport to Matt at MCR for a replacement wet timing belt after checking Google reviews and with the help of Chat GPT. Matt is very knowledgeable, honest, quick, efficient and offers excellent value for money: a very rare combination in current times. I was even sent a brief but reassuring progress video before being advised the car was ready. I couldn’t recommend MCR more highly!

    ​I brought my Ford Focus to Matt specifically for the wet timing belt replacement. His quote was by far the best I received from any specialist. ​Not only did he complete the major belt work perfectly, but also replaced a few injector seals that were torn that caused a fuel smell in the cabin. He also provided videos of the new belt installation throughout. Specialist knowledge, honest pricing, and transparent, highly, highly recommend

    I had my wet belt changed on my Transit Custom. Matt was extremely helpful and delivered high quality work, at a fraction of the cost of other quotes I had for the job. Really appreciated the videos he took to show me what he was doing. Would 100% recommend MCR automotive, and I will definitely be going to Matt again in future!

    Booked an appointment via phone. Matt was understanding of my situation and was able to facilitate me leaving the car the night before. I was sent video updates during the work and I was able to pick the car up in the afternoon. I only came across MCR via the reviews and I must say Matt's experience and knowledge was comforting in knowing my car was in good hands. The dreaded wet belt etc was changed in my MK3 Focus EcoBoost. The price was affordable in comparison to other 'specialist' in changing wet belts.

    Matt did an amazing job. I have been let down by so many so called professional mechanics in this area not returning calls and not showing up when they say they will. Matt collected my car when he said he would and returned it repaired far quicker than I had anticipated. The work has been completed to an excellent standard and for a great price. Looks like I have found my new go to mechanic. Thanks Matt.

    I can honestly say Matt is the best mechanic i have ever used he has just changed my starter motor on my car within 2 hours (this is a big job on my car as whole left side of engine needs dismantling) no other mechanic really wanted to do the job as its a real pain and also i was quoted a very high amount. Matt did the job for a fraction of what i was quoted elsewhere and like i say within 2 hours if i could give more stars i would thank you Matt.

    Really happy with how Matt from MCR Automotive dealt with my old French car which most mechanics try to avoid ! Literally saved the car from going to scrap (I was having no other option than starting to think about scraping the car with the expensive quotes I've got for head gasket repair) and on a price 3 times less than the cheapest quotes I received from my local garages! The head gasket job was done the same day. Matt collected the car in the morning and dropped it back in the afternoon with all job done and ever since the car runs great! Definitely will be recommending MCR Automotive to everyone!

    Matt came out to originally to replace the handbrake lever on my Ford Galaxy, he sourced the part very cheaply and even whilst fixing the handbrake, he fixed an issue with my front sidelight bulbs as well. Matt turned up at the time he said each time and I have now booked my MOT in with him as well. Fantastic service, I have since recommended him to a friend as well who is having issues with a Ford Mondeo.
