I don’t like the fact that I wasn’t refunded my deposit when I wanted to change my mind about buying that particular car. I actually changed my mind because the car was old now I can’t afford the insurance on it.

Hello Desola,
Thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry to hear you were left with this impression.
We would like to gently clarify what happened, as the situation was a little different. The £500 was paid separately to us so that Jason could search for a car to match your needs, rather than being a deposit against a specific vehicle. As we were unable to find a car that suited your requirements, that £500 has since been refunded to you in full. If anything remains unclear or you have any further questions, please do get in touch with us directly on 01732 357182 and we will be happy to talk it through.
We actively encourage all feedback, positive and negative, as it helps keep a balanced and transparent picture of our business.

Excellent garage, worth more than 5 stars.

We have been visiting Horsepower for a few years, for MOT and Service and any other work required. We drive 43 miles especially to Horsepower, definitely worth the distance. Horsepower is extremely welcoming, we have built up a lovely relationship with the staff, Duncan and Danny are outstanding and go above and beyond. Horsepower have excellent 5 Star+ mechanics, would not trust any other garage with our car, which we originally purchased from Horsepower a few years ago & Danny really looked after us. We cannot emphasise enough in words to express how excellent the staff are at Horsepower and its always a pleasure to visit. Anyone who is looking for a excellent garage then look no further, we highly recommend Horsepower. Worth any distance. The staff are just amazing and its always great to see Duncan and Danny for a chat and catch up. Horsepower have a very comfortable waiting area, TV, staff offering coffee, we are very well cared for and make us feel very special. Its not like any other ordinary garage, Horsepower is extra special. Duncan is very reliable and works hard to keep his customers happy, excellent at his work, Duncan is responsible for all the MOT & Service bookings and much more and does any excellent job.

Thank you for the wonderful review, Sally.

Travelling 43 miles to visit us is going above and beyond, and we are genuinely touched that you trust us with your car after buying it from us a few years ago. Duncan, Danny and the whole team think the world of customers like you.

We are really glad you enjoy the welcome, the catch ups and the comfortable waiting area. It is always a pleasure to see you.

Good afternoon Mr k k, thank you so much for sharing your experience and for the five stars. We are delighted that Danny and Jason were able to find you the car of your dreams, especially after the difficulties with the external finance company, and that our own internal finance helped get you over the line. It sounds like a wonderful one owner, low mileage car and we hope you enjoy adding your personal touches to it. Should you ever need the warranty, our team will be happy to look after you. Congratulations and enjoy the car. From all the team @ Horsepower 😊

Absolutely excellent

Absolutely excellent. My BMW needed a new battery + the equipment to register the new battery with the car's electronic system. The Horsepower team did this on the same day I called, expertly, efficiently, and at a very competitive price. They are also very nice people. Many thanks
