Had the most wonderful experience with the team today, Was booked in for an inspection at 2pm and my car wouldn’t start a block over so went down to the shop and Matt was lovely he came down the road got the car started and drove it back to the shop. When I went back to pick up the office ladies were lovely and Matt was very helpful breaking down what was happening with the car. My first interaction as a car owner with a mechanics and it was great so thank you 🙏

I write tough reviews so if it's good I've received exceptional service. I've throw thousands into getting issues I've had fixed ( but they weren't ) elsewhere. I was recommended Berklee and told the mechanic there was spot on. That's an understatement he's amazing. Fixed a vehicle I was told elsewhere was unfixable. Fixed 2 other vehicles that were wrongly diagnosed. The service I've received was 2nd to non so very happy and honestly so reasonably priced. Don't waste time or money elsewhere this team of professionals will find it fix it and not burn you pocket. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you so much.
