“Such a great garage experience. I called in a panic as my car was overheating and at risk of further damage. Jack told me to come in straight away and he would help. He told me exactly what the problem, how much it would cost to fix (extremely reasonable) and fixed it that day, lifesaver! Jack was professional and kind, would definitely recommend.”

“Ross did an amazing job of matching the paint on my 30 yr old golf. It's absolutely gleaming and wasn't expensive. Absolutely recommend Bodyworx 100%. Chuffed with the results.”
“Nick is a such a decent bloke. So helpful & knowledgeable. Proper old school service, a real asset to the local community. Competitive prices and excellent customer service.”
“So glad to have found this garage. I needed a repair doing and they sorted it so quickly and at really reasonable price. I was wary of being overcharged somewhere being young woman and new driver but no - totally fair, respectful and understanding. Happy with the job they've done and especially to get it sorted so quickly. I would definitely recommend to anyone, and will be using them again for service and MOT and any repairs in future if needed.”
“Really helpful. I have always had a good experience.”
“I had been having intermittent problems with my front brakes getting stuck for over a year. After taking my car to three other mechanics who had not been able to fully solve the issue, I called up Baris at B&H Motor Services who fit me in the next day. They managed to fully fix the brakes, which are running perfectly six months later, at a very reasonable price. Would fully recommend”
“David had just solved quite a tricky problem with my car and I am extremely impressed with his skill and knowledge. On this and earlier occasions he has always been really helpful, open and transparent. I would recommend this garage without any reservation at all.”
“Had my MOT on Saturday morning. Really friendly and was finished on time. Will be back next year!”
“Thank you to Tom H truck driver! He was Super friendly and helpful, even went the extra mile to convoy with us to Halfords to make sure we were okay getting there. Made such a difference and turned around our stressful evening, thank you!!”
“Today was the first time I have used this Garage.I had a rear RHS ABS sensor issue on my Ford Kuga,which was correctly and efficiently diagnosed and replaced very swiftly. I had an update phone call whilst I was at work, confirming the diagnosis and the cost of the work to be carried out and whether I wanted to go ahead with it,which of course I did. The work was carried out from start to finish in a very professional Manor. And the price was reasonable too. I will definitely be using Madeira Garage again.”
“Fair prices for my service parts.”
“I work with video cameras and last March I had to do a show that required an external Ninja V monitor for a camera via battery power, without the battery being attached directly to the monitor. I had all the right components except a cable that could go out of the SmallRig 12v (2.1mm) plate into the Ninja V (2.5mm). I had ordered a DC power supply adapter – converting a 2.1mm male to a 2.5mm male, but it was coming in the mail I wasn’t sure if I was going to get to me on time - so in a last ditch effort I went all over Brighton and Hove into every electrical shop I could find for over 5 hours, asking for parts, everyone looked at me like I was crazy. Finally, I went into Street Sounds and explained to Richard what I was trying to do. He simply said bring in the cables and the device and let’s have a look. I went home grabbed the bits and brought everything back. He asked: All you want is a 2.1mm on onside and 2.5mm on other side of a cable? I was like Yep! He went that’s easy, cut the 2 x cables to desired length, soldered the cable, threw some shrink wrap on it, heat gunned and said “test that”. I did and it worked perfectly. I offered to pay for his help, he said no, I offered to buy him some drinks or something for his time. He said No, it was a simple easy job only took like 5 minutes and sometimes it’s enough to help someone and see how stuff works. I wish there was more people with this kind of outlook and customer service. Thank You!!! ”

“If you own a car and have struggled with finding a decent mechanic, then this is your man. John's work is brilliant, good value for money and he's a nice guy too - he's done all the work on my vehicles for the last few years now and I continue to travel all the way to hove from East Brighton to have him do my work despite there being a few garages closer to home. I'd highly recommend him”

“Bruce repaired and painted our beloved VW T5 side door. My trusted mechanic recommended Bodycare, and I now know why. The door looks as good as new. Great service, professionally executed by a stand up gentleman. On top of all of that, the price was magnificent. Look no further, this is your place. Thanks Bodycare, I'm loving your work!”
“Dave is genuine, honest and definitely hard working because he fixed my car super quick and very reasonable price. Nice guy and 100% would use again and recommend!”
“Left the original review below in 2020 and have come back Jan 2024 for an MOT (fitting it in when I am visiting family as at least I will get a good service here) and again had a great experience. Nice and straight forward and honest and a relief when I've had so many horrible experiences. My radiator was leaking and I've heard and read about how expensive it can be to get a new radiator etc so was pleasantly surprised that he could fix the leaks as well as another issue and it was a very reasonable price I am so relieved, thanks! Thank goodness I brought my car for a second opinion to John Moore Auto repairs. Took my car to a well known chain car service (after googling and reading trust pilot reviews I assumed I could trust) in London. They gave me a long list of problems and quote of over £800 (not including service charge I had already paid) for a well looked after 11yo ford fiesta. Of the many red and amber alerts they gave me they included changing all my brakes and so John got everything ready to change and instead found my brakes were almost new and definitely didn’t need changing. He did however find I had a puncture in one tyre and another tyre with a valve leak (both of which had been missed by the well know car chain with apparently good reviews) despite my concern as I needed my car ready for quite a few long distance journeys). The overall cost totalled £250 not over £800! So relieved to find a garage I can trust (thanks to my brother in law) and will be bringing my car here for any future work despite the fact I live in London. Highly recommend.”
“Ali and the team were excellent, so helpful and he fitted me in although they were very busy, everyone was polite and friendly. The repair to my spoiler was to a high standard.”
