- Popped my fiat 500 in yesterday morning as a few of my lights were out. They had a look straight away. The mechanic managed to get the mainlight working however the side light and number plate light would not work. He recommended I have the car looked at by an auto electrician. Even though he took his time to replace the bulbs he did not charge me, as he had not been able to fix all of them. Very grateful. Thank you 😊jayne KerryAlways well priced and get the job done while you wait 5☆DonnieStaff very helpful and give very good advise!Barry Thompson

- Great service, really nice lads,
I don’t like going to garages on my own as I’ve been ignored/overlooked in the past at other places, I had I slow puncher in my tyre, it couldn’t be repaired as it was on the “wall” of the tyre, so they replaced it with a new one at a good price, and checked the rest of my tyre pressures of me too, I was told I could call in any time to get the pressures checked. I would definitely recommend them.Susan DinsleyGreat friendly lads, explain the issues, explain what needs to be done and explains your options. I was able to sit and wait while the work was done and it was done rather quickly.... Only downside was that they don't do MOTS. Happily come back here every time!!!!Danny NewberyProfessional all the way helpful and friendly did a great job putting my new tyre on and for it being a working garage it was spotlessAlison Robinson - very nice service and they are always helpfulMarcin TomczakTransparent and honest service, out of all the garages I've ever used I would trust this garage any time. There's glass windows in the waiting room so you can watch your car being fixed. Pricing is very fair and all his staff are polite and friendly. It's not very often these days to find a very straight garage but alas I've found one. Very recommended.PaulTop class great service highly recommended

Not sure about the Tyre Spot brand itself, but the mechanics at this one always complete work to a very good standard.David AllenA massive thankyou to the staff at Tyre spot. My son had a blow out on the A1. The AA came out and brought him here, it was early on Saturday morning and they weren't open yet. Someone was in and opened up early, sorted a new tyre out and checked the others to make sure they were OK. My so was on his way again in no time. Great customer service!Chris Budd
