“Great place, great service. Amazing people!”

“Great local garage. Friendly, well knowledgeable mechanics who go above and beyond”

“Got my reliant robin moted here today, fantastic garage, friendly service, completed the mot ahead of schedule, highly recommend, thank you,”

“Fantastic 5* service. I had a puncture and within 1 hour after calling and booking in.. job done! Great professional staff offering excellent service at an affordable rate. Will definitely revisit and highly recommend. Thank you.”

“I've used Thistle Autos for my last two MOTs and I couldn't rate them any more highly. - very easy to deal with - work done consistently to a high standard - excellent value for money - speedy And importantly, their communications are really good too. They explain any issues/options clearly and honestly which is really something you appreciate when your vehicle is getting on a bit, like mine! What all this does is, it builds trust, and that's why I'll keep going back.”

“As always a job well done at a reasonable price. You can trust the quality of their work and honest prices.”

“I’ve used this garage many times over the last few years and always found their service to be top standard and fairly priced, on one occasion managing to get me booked in very quickly when my brakes failed. Gail is very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful and recently offered me lots of advice to help me get my car fixed out of warranty free of charge elsewhere. You can trust this garage to give good honest advice and service.”

“Have been visiting with bikes and cars for several years now, and always have a great experience. Really nice, friendly owners and staff with experienced honest mechanics. Highly recommended.”

“Brilliant garage. They don’t change things for the sake of it and they’re honest with their customers.”

“It’s hard to find an honest garage these days but Queen Charlotte St Garage is one of them. Took my car in to change the timing belt. Not only did he end up charging me less than quoted because he sourced the part cheaper but didn’t change the water pump as following inspection felt it was an unnecessary expense. Highly recommend this garage.”

“Excellent 5* service again from the lads at McGregors garage, they go above and beyond! Feel very reassured having them nearby! Well priced too! I'll be a continued customer for sure! Thanks so much again!”

“I actually do not know what they did to my car but it looks and drives like brand new! Wow!!! If you have a Citroen these guys will know what medicine or surgery it needs instantly. Thank you!”

“Was recommended Stenhouse Motors by a friend. My first impression was extremely positive, of a professional and organised set up, with staff who are respectful and interested. Plus really helpful taking in my breakdown in zero notice. I’m very impressed and will definitely be back. Thanks to John, Kenny and all the team.”

“Great service. GSM look after our 4 vans, and take care of all routine servicing & MOT's, but are always available to help out on last minute jobs”

“Took car in to get brakes replaced after another garage had recommended this during a service – they let me know that the brakes were actually in good enough condition! Appreciated telling me this rather than just carrying out the work, will be back in future.”

“We called in on the off chance one lunchtime because our car door had interacted with a metal gate, and needed repairing. They gave us a quote by the end of that afternoon and we took it in the next day for the work to be done. We were expecting them to have the car for 3 days, but actually got it back within 36 hours, which was great. The work has been done to a very high standard, and our car looks fantastic again. Well done, and thank you. (They also service vehicles, do MOTs etc, and fit new tyres).”

“Been going here for a few years now and find everyone so friendly and helpful. Excellent communication and service, fair prices and fast repairs any time I've had to feal with them.”

“Fixed a couple of difficult problems really well. Very patient, reasonable prices and very personable. Great to have a mechanic who knows his stuff and is reliable. Highly recommended”

“These guys are well worth checking out if you live in the Bo'ness area. Very happy with the service and pricing was reasonable. The chap I dealt with even took the time to explain the work carried out and give me a break down of the bill before collecting my car. Highly recommended!”

“Good, honest mechanics. They MOT bikes, but just a heads up to new bikers, they don’t repair them. I’ll continue to go to them for MOT’s for my cars and motorcycles in future.”

“Hi all. Cannot recommend this garage enough. Had both my bikes MOT,d and my car fully serviced and MOT,d. Great service good fair prices and a warm welcome. Will deffo be back. Si.”

“Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Duncan and the team are amazing and Christine too.”

“Professional, fair pricing and from what we've found, always honest about what needs done & what can wait. We continue to use the musselburgh branch even when moving to Gorebridge - hard to find a garage you rate.”

“I took my husband's car down to get the heat shield fixed as it was loose at 9am & got it back by lunchtime. Great service”

“Flexible great service, thanks a lot.”

“Cannot thank and recommend Links Garage highly enough. Enormous thanks to the mechanic (sorry, don't know his name!) who kindly stayed after hours to help get us back on the road after having van trouble. Your determination to diagnose and fix the problem was hugely appreciated and we were able to drive back home to Wales. Exceptional customer service which is hard to find.”

“I had an issue with my car being in limp mode, even though the underlying problem was fixed. Several attempts had been made to clear the code with no luck. These guys saw me quickly and sorted the problem. 100 percent recommend.”

“I have been using Abs for nearly 15years.. always very good service and reasonably priced.and very good costumer service.. They are always busy and recommend taking appointments.”

“After a Deliveroo rider hit one side of my brand new car and then vandalised the other, I took my car to Annandale where it was looked over by Walter. He was fantastic, gave a very fair assessment so booked it in immediately. I got the car back and you would never have known it had been painted, the colour match and quality of work was flawless on what is a difficult Pearlescent colour to match. I was so impressed with the work that I took my mums Mercedes in the following week for paint to the bonnet and bumpers to be done. Scott did an amazing job on that too, and he buffed up the rest of the car, as well as the headlights, so it now looks like new. 2 visits and 2 outstanding experiences. I can’t recommend this place enough and they will be getting more work from me in the future! Thanks guys! 10/10!”

“I'm new to the area so I wasn't familiar with where to take my car. I have to say Bill and the team have been excellent taking care of my car(s). I can happily recommend anyone to use Abercorn garage.”
