Repair services in Reading

“I was referred with one of my collleague, Tony is very professional and does his job well am satisfied and impressed with his work. He communicates clearly on time. I will use him again in the future and will definitely recommend him to other people.”

“I had an engine replacement done here at a reasonable price considering the amount of labour this requires. The downside for this kind of job is it took nearly a month as they had to source the parts for my quite old vehicle, which I understand. Once the repair was completed I received good aftercare service and 90 days warranty. Sometimes I felt a bit of lack of comunication, however they have prooved they did a good job. Overall good experience”

“Staff are very helpful , friendly and honest and go all the way to help customer. Their expertise and workman ship showed in the quality of work. my car had significant body work and staff here brought my ride to original glory. Highly recommended”

“Excellent service, very helpful when I cracked my alloy, sorted out the weld and fitted a new tyre, very well priced. The guys all know there stuff and no question was unanswered, inject feeling like I’d definitely chosen the right place for any future words on my car.”

“I have got my car from Anchor Cars Tadley for over 2 weeks now. I must say I am very happy with my purchase. I've worked with Richard who was extremely patient with me and answered all my questions. No question was stupid for him. As I do not know anything related to cars this was a very stressful process for me but Richard gave me a lot of reassurance. I am very happy that I've got my car from them. The garage looks very good and they have a good selection of cars. I would like to say thank you to Richard for helping me get my dram car.”

“Just wanted to say thank you so much for being so accommodating when my car was left at your workshop on Sunday, after I broke down on the M40 80miles from home. Another big thank you to the guy working in the forecourt on Sunday for being so lovely!”

“Professional, honest garage. Satisfied with my first experience, Alan took my fiesta in for a diagnostic and gave me all the relevant information I needed, explaining things well and not ripping me off at the first hurdle. No doubt I will have to return back soon if my problem persists!”

“Fantastic service. Friendly Helpful and nothing is too much trouble even at short notice. Wouldn't go anywhere else”

“Went to Kremer on friday afternoon with a fairly damaged front bumper due to a deer running into me. They took a look and advised a few options. Offered if I brought it back tomorrow 1st thing, they would see what they could do. Got the car back 3 hours later all straightened out. Excellent job and great price. Definitely recommend.”

“Picked my car up as scheduled on the morning of my MOT/Service (Friday). They kept me updated during the day regarding advisories (brake pad/discs). They unfortunately couldn't return my car on the same day as the MOT/Service but did however return my car promptly this morning and again kept me informed. Fortunately I didn't require my car Friday evening.”

“Grant and the Team managed to fit me in on Sunday between scheduled work to remove a stone from my brakes. They got it done in 5 mins. Very much appreciated guys. Thanks”

“Realised I urgently need an MOT done on a saturday morning. Called MOT centre on the phone and they said they would be able to do so on the same day. Drove my car in just before noon and got my MOT certificate 40mins later. Efficient and friendly service, very well priced. Would recommend.”

“I rang up to get my car booked in for a service and MOT (expecting like most service centres to have to wait a couple of weeks for an appointment). Glenn was extremely helpful and accommodating and let me pick any day that suited me (that week!). I ended up having to change the day due to work commitments and this was no bother. Unlike other service centres (who seemed to want to do everything under the sun for a minor service), Glenn and the team said they would take a look at the car, plug it in, and only do the work that needed doing and were 100% open and honest about this - and although I have no idea what definitely needed doing, I took their advice and I felt confident in the knowledge that Glenn and the team were being truthful and honest. I picked the car up that evening (nice and clean which was a bonus) and was pleasantly surprised by the cost for both the service and the MOT. I can say that the customer service was great, the cost was fantastic and actually less than I had expected, and whilst I don't know any of the technical details regarding the parts or what was actually done, I did feel very pleased with the whole experience. I would definitely recommend to others and will be revisiting in the future.”

“Brilliant! Just fitted our motor mover. Efficient and a nice guy, good advice (we are new to this) will definitely use again and recommend. Edit 31st August 2023. Had quite a lot of work done to the caravan, new roof lights, issues with wiring and most recently our jockey wheel collapsed. Dave responded quickly to my message and came round and fixed it. Prices always good and he doesn't replace parts or find faults to fix. Just does a great job and what is needed. Honest man.”

“Had a pleasant experience, the stuff was welcoming and great work done on my car. would recommend.”

“I booked my Zafira into this garage to get the worn steering rack replaced which was starting to leak steering fluid. They did a great job replacing it at a competitive price and the steering is now working smoothly without any leaks. I will certainly use them again in the future!”

“Great service again. I travel a good 45 mins to visit and pass my local Vauxhall garage. I purchased my Zafira from SCG and have continued to use them and will do in the future. Loads better than my local Vauxhall garage!”

“I got all warning light on when i switch on my civic. Honda dealer gave me long waiting time and Halford only did diagnostic but did not fix the issue. With 2 visit with ms Auto. They fix my car. Happy with their service”

“I go here for all my car needs. For the second time they looked at my car making a noise, fixed it for free within half an hour and sent me on my way! They could have easily charged me for even just their time or something basic but didn’t! I highly recommend them. When I have had work needing done they’re always fair priced as well.”

“Reliable and Professional MOT & Car Service I recently had my car in for both an MOT and a full service, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The team was friendly, honest, and very knowledgeable. They carried out the work efficiently and kept me updated throughout. No unnecessary upselling, just clear explanations and fair prices. My car is running smoothly now — it’s reassuring to know it’s in safe hands. Highly recommended garage for anyone looking for trustworthy MOTs and servicing.”

“Customer service was exemplary with regular updates all along. In my case there were unexpected/unrelated inadvertent minor issues following the (excellent body work repair) - whereby the car wouldn't start for staff when I had already been asked to collect the car for the completed job. Halo then took steps and went the extra mile in making sure the car was driveable for me . This took a further week. During that time I was able to keep the courtesy car as is essential to my caring job in the Community (so there was positive local impact). I cannot thank (all) staff enough for their overall approach, kindness, personability and efficiency. They made me feel valued and secure as their customer and I am so grateful. I would highly recommend Halo to customers for their excellent, considerate service. Thank you.”

“Had a software recall update done on our van here. All went well and they did us a favour by fitting the job in a bit earlier than scheduled.”
