Car customizations in Croydon

“Great experience. Sorted me out within 24hrs, very nice and excellent customer service. They came up on google and I went with them without a second guess, and all I can say are they are very reliable. Love my new plates and plate holder”

“Quality workmanship, polite staff went out of there way to help, I would definitely recommend this garage. Still using them in September 2025 my Mercedes waiting to be taken in for repair.”

“Top bunch of lads Very helpful and knowledgeable Great service”

“Great service with a smile! Gary and the team helped me out when I was starting on a 200 mile journey and realised the lug nuts on one of my wheels were loose. They sorted it out quickly and got me on my way. They also did our MOT and some other work for us this year and they have been really easy to deal with. Fantastic garage and lovely people. Thank you!”

“Great company to deal with. After being let down by another so called repairer, I moved my business to CARC and could not be happier. Sorted within a week and car was returned to me looking better than ever. Had a minor issue with the repair but the owner sorted that straight away. Would highly recommend this place. Thanks.”

“I recently had my car repaired at P D Motors and can honestly say it was a great experience. Paul is very knowledgeable about what he does, and carried out all works perfectly. My car feels amazing, and is back to being a pleasure to drive. Thanks again for everything.”

“Used the garage a few times a few years ago when I lived in the area - one of the best garages I’ve been to. Martin’s a very nice bloke, honest and helpful. Very professional outfit and seem to go above and beyond to help at reasonable prices. Shame to not live as close these days.”

“Professional vehicle service and sales centre, staff are courteous, knowledgeable and friendly, highly recommended.”

“As a woman, we were treated amazingly. This is how I want to start with. Roland, we are grateful to have met you, you will be our mechanic until you retire. After many failures with many garages, we took our car to them, they don’t promise anything unnecessary, they don’t scare you with anything; they just calmly talk about possibilities. And whatever they said before the inspection by saying “according to our experience, it’s most likely this/that” was true. We said we are cost conscious, they tried their best to accommodate us, they suggested priorities and and said some things can wait a bit more. They explained everything to us without belittling us (we were belittled a lot before, very misogynistic) and didn’t do anything without confirming with us. They finished within the time frame they promised, without going 1p above the initial quote, and they offered a courtesy check 1-2 weeks later. We are very pleased. Also, Paul from the office was very helpful, booked us very quickly.”

“The Volvo team at Croydon has been absolutely amazing—especially Hannah, who is truly an asset to the company. I booked my Volvo XC90 in for a full service and a health check. The car passed the health check, apart from an issue with the ERAD system, which I understand is a common problem. I’m hopeful that Volvo will assist with the cost of this repair. The pricing was reasonable overall. My vehicle also had a recall related to the battery, and unfortunately, it failed. Hannah promptly informed me that the battery would be replaced under the recall scheme at no cost, which was a relief. Since I rely on the car for school drop-offs and daily commuting, Hannah kindly arranged a courtesy car for me. Another impressive touch was the video link they sent, showing a detailed inspection of my car and outlining any necessary work—very professional. I will definitely continue servicing my car at this location. The team is honest, straightforward, and never pushy—just genuine people providing great service. I’m happy to recommend them. Keep up the amazing work you guys do”

“This is the only place I will go for my spares they owners are very accommodating very helpful and very friendly ❤”

“Today was the first time going to this shop. My daughter and I popped in and was amazed by the selection of clothing and the brilliant prices! I had to purchase some nice trainers for my daughter! Honestly great quality and nice service. Definitely shopping there again.”

“Huge thanks to Michael at the Halford’s bike departmentin West Wickham! He truly saved the day with a quick turnaround on my daughter’s first bike. We were in a bit of a rush, but Michael went above and beyond to get everything sorted quickly and smoothly. His professionalism, helpful attitude, and genuine care made the whole experience stress-free. My daughter left beaming, and so did we. Couldn’t have asked for better service – thank you, Michael!”

“Came in after my GLE failed its MOT at Mercedes and was advised I needed two new tyres. Halfords Croydon were brilliant & honest one tyre needed doing, the other did not. Took back to Mercedes for its MOT, advised the above from halfords and it passed surprisingly! They saved me a fair bit of money so thank you!”

“Great garage, super helpful and efficient mechanics!”

“I was really impressed by the Croydon Jayar Car Parts branch. I received excellent service and will definitely return. Thank you very much and keep up the good work.”

“This is my second time using this garages service. I have found the staff to be very polite and friendly. They don't talk down to you and give valid advice regarding your vehicle. I would highly recommend this company. I need things done to my car which are not vital but could get worse if not dealt with. They told me what needs to be done without putting pressure on me. They are very matter of fact with their advice, which makes you trust them. I am extremely happy with this garage and glad my friend encouraged me to use them.”

“My experience with staff named Jay working at Croydon Halfords, was exceptionally professional and warming and so willing to help above and beyond. I would also like to mention Christian and Ryan to who were very funny and made me shopping experience a delightful one.”

“I have just purchased a new vehicle from Kinghams and I must say that the whole experience from the test drive to purchase was excellent. There was no pressure put on me to buy and Mike and Chloe were very good and made the purchase easy.”

“Simon should be main store manager. Very good customer service Puts GSF on the line Shane and Faiz always manage to convince me to buy for them. Simon works with his heart and I would expect to him be the whole store manager or regional manager.”

“Took my BMW for MOT, brake pads replacement & service, also I’ve had problem with my air condition it didn’t work - last year took my car to other car garage in Croydon who call themselves BMW specialists and told them about air condition And when I came to collect my car they’ve told me that they looked at the air condition and told me what I already knew that it doesn’t work And charged me £50 for telling me that. They’ve Told me that whole dash board needs to be removed in order to Spot the issue and it may be a matter of hundreds of pounds. Mr Kabir personally took a care of my car He’s highly skilled Mechanic with tons of experience and he knows BMW’s inside out. All work done on my car with great precision and care, on top of that it took Mr Kabir 15 minutes to fix the air condition i was shocked and couldn’t thank him enough knowing that my car was in a good hands of highly skilled professional Thank you so much Mr Kabir job worth 10 stars”

“We went into Halfords in Purley to renew gear wires on our bike. Was served by Kamani. He gave excellent service and was extremely kind and polite. Booked our bike in to be repaired. Great communication. When we went back he carried the bike down the stairs and put it into our car. Wonderful service. Kamani is a credit to your store. Would highly recommend.”

“Got stuck on the road late at night with a punctured tyre and no chance of getting a tow. Locked the car and called Carriage Cars. They picked up straight away and reached me fast. Honestly felt like a rescue. Got home safely thanks to their quick response and solid service. Highly recommend.”
