Very helpful.
Just had two new tyres fitted at the Preston Marsh Lane site, checked a spare wheel in my garage as the vehicle was not present, 255/50×20 so place the order. But found out that the tyres on the vehicle were 255/55×20, The guys at National tyres said they could have then later in the day. So arranged to return at 4pm, 45 minutes later all fitted and on my way. So helpfully and polite. Would recommend this service to anyone looking for tyres.

Trustworthy Garage
The staff at the Chadwell Heath auto centre are always honest and helpful. I had a mot and service, and no unnecessary work was encouraged. I was given a realistic timeline for getting things done in the near future.

I went into Halfords Erdington with a suspected Clutch problem on my car on a Sunday Morning, one of the Engineer took my car out on a Clutch check and confirmed what I thought that the Clutch was on the way out and they then booked it in for repair a week later.
On arrival on the repair day all the staff were very friendly and efficient and replaced my clutch to a high standard and cured my problem not only of a slipping clutch but some other problems I did not realise were a clutch problem to a point my car runs as new

Great customer service. I received regular updates via text message and email to let me know when my vehicle was ready for collection. The gentleman at the desk was helpful, friendly and patient when assisting me with the payment process. Overall, a really positive experience.

Halfords Basingstoke Road
I visited the Halfords Basingstoke Road branch this morning to have a new bulb fitted. The staff were friendly and attentive which put me at ease straight away. Darren handled my issue and was polite and professional. I would definitely recommend going to this branch based on the brilliant service I received.

Really easy to book my MOT online with Halfords. The team were friendly, helpful and professional throughout. My car was reviewed promptly and ready for collection within the timescales outlined when I dropped it off. A smooth, hassle-free experience from start to finish. Would definitely use them again.

Halfords, Bletchley
Halfords (Formerly National tyres) of Bletchley are tops. I booked in for replacement brake discs and pads and an MOT. Everything was clearly explained before I agreed to the work. Friendly and knowledgeable front of house. She understood my customer needs and provided a clear, concise explanation of the work required. Its easy to bash and give a low score, but Halfords Bletchley deserve a 5 star award.
