While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Trustworthy garage

You don’t come across that many garages these days that will not seize every opportunity to grab as much of your money as possible, but SME are a really decent bunch of chaps that still seem to have a bit of compassion for you car problems and seek to find a reasonable solution for you.

Sovereign Motor Engineers (SME), Tonbridge

Sovereign Motor Engineers are a small independent vehicle service garage based in Tonbridge and I have regularly used them for the servicing, repair and MOT testing of my various Audi, Porsche and Volkswagen cars for many years - paticularly when the manufacturers warranty period has expired. I have always found the service provided by SME to be excellent, and really appreciate their practical, pragmatic advice regarding car maintenance whenever I need it. They provide really good service, honest advice, nothing ever seems to be too much trouble - sometimes at short notice - and everything is done for a very competitive price.
