Smart Garages in Basildon

After i got a call back from Tom and amazing service was done(car collection and delivery) i can say only one big THANK YOU. service was very quick.... i ask my exaust to be checked as well so i got a call and i get an explanation about what causing noise and how much will cost. No hidden fees.. amazing and HONEST people. Big pleasure to find a garage where people want to care about your car. Highly recommended and i am back next week there for another job!

I was called by Tom from the garage on Sunday evening which was a surprise. He was very helpful as I also wanted a service and brake pads renewed. My car was booked in for the following Thursday and they had the car for 5 days. All work was completed to my satisfaction and i was also shown the old parts. All in all a good service from VPR and I would recommend them highly. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Initial call gave quote for just a clutch plus extra if flywheel required. On inspection found flywheel okay but needed additional oil seal for crank shaft for a small extra cost. repaired quickly and efficiently by a friendly knowledgable team. Although i had to travel it was well worth it. Definitley five star service. Recommended without reservation

Just a big thank you to the guys at VRS. Vehicle was diagnosed and repaired with great communication throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reputable garage. Will definitely do business with them again (although I would prefer not to have any further breakdowns). Just a big thank you again.

Friendly and efficient, and I liked the fact that they talked me through things. They didn't just fix the clutch but gave me information about how to put the oil in etc and how to look after my car which I really appreciated. They ccarried out the work promptly and were very professional. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Cam belt and water pump fitted.great job done would use again

Excellent and friendly service, did a quick turnaround on the vehicle and at a great price. Very highly recommended.

I am very upset with this mechanic, my husband notice the underneath of my car had been damage by him jacking the car in the wrong spot. He did come back to have a look, it wasn't there before only when he left we see it. There is no jacking point to my A2 you have to be very careful. I have learnt from this and will not be using them again terrible.

good comunication by them and job done exactly when they said at good price.

Turned up when requested, polite and quick to sort problem out, luckily only a flat battery but would certainly use again. Quick efficient service thank yiu

Hi, They did a great job and the communication was very good. Highly recommended.

Fantastic service, Came out to my house the following morning. Arrived at 10am as agreed. Communication throughout with Rob was next to none. Fully updated to what was going on by phone. Will be using again if and when I need. Priced as quoted. Thanks Rob. Eddie S

Andy collected my car, completed the work and dropped it back to me - he made the experience very easy for me and at a great price too. Thanks very much!

Excellent service Andy picked my car up took it away! Fixed it 2 hrs later he drove it back to me ...made my day excellent service I would highly recommended to anyone fantastic I will certainly take my car back for a service. ..well worth travelling to Essex fantastic thankyou Andy your a star ..m

I highly recommend Andy and automotive car clinic, I had a alternator replacement which was carried out in a speedy and very reasonable price, was happy that I was charged less than the original quote, will definitely use automotive car klinic again.

I was treated well by Andy and did a good job with a minimum charge. I recommend the garage with A+++

Yes. Great Service

Excellent professional service. Super friendly... They explained everything they were doing. What I appreciated most, was the fact that they kept me informed, even on slight delays. I know of a few garages that would have tried to cover up. But that made the difference for me. Would definitely use again in the future.

was happy with the service

Really good place to go for a cheap MOT, was basically in and out.

Apprehensive from previous reviews but gave the mechanic a chance. He explained someone else done those jobs on his behalf. He was first to answer my request, came at the time requested and he replaced battery in good time and got the car working plus gave some advice should the problem arise again.

My family and I were extremely disappointed because the mechanic turned up to check the car and suspected/diagnosed what the problem might be and promised to come back and fix the car. Surprisingly and shocking the mechanic did not contact us and did not come back. It was not like he came to conned us and left us in limbo. The whole family is disappointed and would like to book any job with TST again. We lost £50 within 6 minutes without any follow up or getting the job done. I am so so disappointed sorry. I don't any future booking please.

Liam come to diagnose the problem Said it was a fault with the key and would get someone he knew to call we never received a call back . When we did get somebody else it was nothing to do with the key it was the steering. So we basically paid £60 for nothing
