Carl came out when my car would not start before work. He explained what he was checking and had it sorted without any fuss.
Really decent service. The brake noise was worrying me and Carl sorted the pads and discs on the drive.
Friendly, straightforward and did not make the job sound bigger than it was. I would happily use Tiger Motors again.
Carl found the alternator fault after I had already replaced the battery elsewhere. Good honest advice.
Booked a service at home and it was much easier than getting the car to a garage. Clear price and clear advice.
My engine light came on and Carl checked it the same week. He explained the fault in normal language, which I appreciated.
Old-school mechanic in a good way. Turned up, got on with the job and told me what was worth doing next.
Helpful on WhatsApp and easy to book. The car is running much better after the oil service.
