I had an MOT done at this place, and, look. I don't know much about cars - I only went to this place because they advertise with a big sign their MOT prices and it looks like they're the cheapest around. And I've heard that some garages will rip you off with unnecessary repairs or what have you.
So I've been going for a couple of years and normally the MOT comes to about £100 with parts. Fine, that's normally what I pay whenever I get an MOT done, here and elsewhere.
But this time I get a call saying it's failed it's MOT (again, no drama), and the engineer (J Peters?) says that among other things a brake fluid tube is corroded and would need to be replaced. I said that would be fine, and arranged to pick it up later. When I picked it up, he said that actually the brake fluid tube was fine and just needed tightening. Therefore he didn't charge me for it.
It seems like a really small thing to give a 5 star review over, but this is the most actively honest event that has happened to me during an MOT - he knew that I would be happy to pay for something, and from my tone knew it was likely I wouldn't check or cause a fuss, and he still did the honest thing and didn't charge me for it when it wasn't necessary.
Strong recommend.
