“We have been using Ray Moss for many years and the service they provide is superb. Mike Paul and Daniel are lovely people and provide an excellent customer service. We would recommend them to anyone.”

“Excellent level of service. Needed the tyre to my vehicle repaired and the job was completed quickly the same day. The staff were friendly and it was good value. No issues at all from my experience.”

“Swallow motors are very knowledgeable, very well priced and very honest. The mechanics are lovely, treat your car like their own and they will explain everything you need to know. Can’t recommend enough”

“Honest, fast, and fantastic reliable service every time. They have gone above and beyond, great team, highly recommend”

“Great guys . At the moment they need all the support you can give them .”

“Great while-you-wait replacement of my KTM seat. Except craftsmanship and great value.”

“My experiences at the Rusty Bike Cafe are BLISSFUL. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS (I recommend the soup with fresh Artisan bread) and the prices are remarkably reasonable (£4 for a generous quantity). The employees are all volunteers and are incredibly sweet. It is nice to sit outside in the summer and inside during the winter. Guaranteed you will leave with a happy belly and a smile on your face.”

“Brilliant, day before a long drive - summer holiday - popped in at 1730 to see if I could get my front wheels rebalanced. Mark was super helpful and actually stayed beyond closing time to help me out. Then charged me 100% off, great start to the hols. Thanks again!”

“Any time you use a new garage you're always a bit wary and this was no different - I have always stuck to what I know. However when the manufacturer issues a recall notice you have to go to an approved dealer. Kinghams were my closest. Staff were friendly on the telephone making the booking, you get confirmation by text (and a reminder) and I found them to be helpful and knowledgeable in person. During the day I received 2 videos of the work being carried out (airbag replacement) and a call to let me know when the work was completed. Overall a positive experience (and a nice shiny car on collection)”

“Stopped off here travelling home after Christmas with engine issues. Despite not actually being open, Kevin was incredibly helpful and extremely knowledgeable, quickly diagnosing the problem, getting us the replacement part and fitting it all within an hour. He charged a very reasonable price and we couldn’t have been more grateful for the professional and friendly service! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!”

“Superb independent Ford specialist. Replaced the rear trailing arm bush on my Ford SMAX. Friendly service, genuine advice, great workmanship. First time using based on google reviews and wish I had used them sooner. I will be using Mercury for all service and repair work going forwards.”

“Jason and his team provide the most understanding, professional and precise mechanic and MOT services in London. Hands down. Three steps: Call, arrive, collect. Simple and effective, thank you Jason.”

“These guys are amazing, nothing is too much trouble, easy going, very polite and take time to explain problems. Reasonable rates, they are our 4th emergency service, can’t fault them, would highly recommend them.”

“Best place for taking care of a Mercedes! Very knowledgeable trained engineers. They go way and beyond in handling all queries I had and suggested ways if keeping car running at reduced cost. Service with a smile! Highly recommended and would definitely return.”

“Friendly and professional service, very accommodating and excellent repairs.”

“Fantastic , honest and professional service from Thassos. From the very beginning to the end, I cannot recommend this garage enough - highly recommend them for anything!!! MOT ran smoothly, they know what they are talking about. I will be a life long customer and loyal to this garage. Thank you again for your services and respect team.”

“I chose Shiv because I could get an early appointment before work. Came here with my leased Aygo last week and they knew exactly how leased car drivers want services to be carried out, i.e. by contacting the lease company on your behalf and seeing what the plan covers. A world away from the Toyota dealership the lease company recommended, who not only don’t seem to be aware how leases work but also still try and upsell you. Quick and efficient, will be back next year.”

“Exceptional family business with total owner involvement in running this unique garage. Apart from offering standard car services, has a very specialised restoration and repair of Classic American cars, especially Corvettes. Owner Richard owns personally some 5 of these Classic cars and enjoys using and sharing their renovation. Rare and very friendly experienced guys”

“Brilliant work done. Very nice members of staff, respectful and true to their word. I'm always weary about leaving my car with people. I tend to work on my own cars and always worry about how mechanics and technicians will treat my car but I can tell you these guys treated mine with respect and did a brilliant job. Good and honest pricing. Would certainly recommend!”

“Highly recommend Adam been using the garage for a long time and he always does a great job.”

“I rarely write reviews but my experience with HP Porsche required me to on this occasion. I only recently became a Porsche owner (and I am not one of those with endless amounts of money - it is a dream that was only just met by my means). Maintenance was a big worry for me, not only having it done right but also having it done for a fair price. HP Porsche have done just that and more. HP Porsche have performed a number of maintenance pieces at exactly the cost they estimated (which I recently found out their hourly rate is about 30% cheaper than some others around London) and have been very thorough in their communication. My most recent interaction with them actually cost me nothing. I was worried about a noise in the front end that I thought was there as well as discolouring of 3 out of 4 exhausts (my worry was mainly about the 4th). When I popped back at the end of the day, they told me the exhaust colouring was normal (it has the factory loud button) and then proceeded to not charge me a penny when they determined that they could hear no noises that were not meant to be there (after two test drives and twice being on the hoist). In fact, they told me, everything it could have been looks like it had been recently replaced. They didn't try to replace anything to bill and make up for their time spent. Truly honest people who will be getting my business for years to come. Thank you!”

“Came in for some service parts, and experienced excellent customer service from a very helpful Terry.”

“Amazing service. Took my car in for its usual service and mot ( best price around) received a call letting me know it needed brake pads and discs to pass. Did the work quickly and gave a discounted price for the labour. Cannot fault this place! Thank you again!”

“Usual great service, my van is serviced every year and has just passed the MOT after some work.”

“Grant & team are a professional, knowledgeable, reliable and honest bunch of gentlemen who offered advice and expert repair at a reasonable price.”

“I recently took my car to CCK in Kensington, and I can confidently say it was one of the best automotive experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. They took the time to listen carefully to all the issues I’d been having and explained exactly what needed to be done, without any jargon or pressure. It immediately gave me confidence that my vehicle was in the right hands. CCK handled a full range of repairs for me — replacing my tyres, fitting a new exhaust, and sorting out the suspension. Each job was carried out to a very high standard, with great attention to detail. The difference in the way the car now drives is night and day. The suspension feels tighter and smoother, while the new exhaust has improved both performance and sound without being too loud. The most impressive part of the service, however, was the gearbox repair. I’d been told by another garage that I might need a full replacement, but CCK inspected it properly and repaired it instead, saving me a significant amount of money. That honesty really stood out and showed they care more about long-term customer satisfaction than just making a sale. They also gave my engine a complete service, replacing fluids, filters, and spark plugs. The difference was instant — the car now runs beautifully, idles quietly, and accelerates effortlessly. It feels like a completely new vehicle, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Pricing was transparent, fair, and clearly itemised. There were no hidden charges or surprises, which made the experience stress-free. Everything was done on time, and communication was excellent throughout. I highly recommend CCK Kensington to anyone looking for trustworthy mechanics who deliver real quality. My car now runs like a dream, and I’ll definitely be returning for future maintenance and servicing.”
