Carl Wigg took my car in at very short notice and carried out the work of replacing the front brake discs and pads. Also spotted one lock nut was missing which they replaced. Completed work very quickly - excellent service.

What a great family run business this has proven to be! As somebody who knows cars, I have never completely trusted garages, so I do not say that lightly.
They replaced my gearbox and clutch and it drives beautifully once again. A superb job and came in under the estimate too!
Would not hesitate to return in the future and I would highly recommend to anyone.

After having some advisories on my MOT, I took my VW Polo to Carl Wigg to have an inspection. April, Carl and the team explained the work that needed doing, the price and what parts may need replacing in the future. I liked their honesty and communication and booked my car in to have the advised work completed. ABS sensor and new coil. Work was completed with efficiency and openness. Will be using Carl Wigg for all future work. Many thanks to the team.

Extensive repairs carried out on a 'new to me', second hand vehicle purchased from a dealer after my car was involved in a hit and run incident whilst parked up overnight which resulted in it being deemed not economically viable to repair.
For peace of mind, I took my newly purchased car to be checked over by my local mechanic who advised the car was not roadworthy, the main issues being brakes that were so badly worn all round, it would not pass an MOT and a significant oil leak.
Upon approaching the dealer I bought the car from about this I was informed I would have to submit a full diagnostic report (something confirmed by the Citizen's Advice Bureau in relation to the Consumer Rights Act 2015, as I had initially requested a full refund).
Having not been in this situation before, I googled for local diagnostic garages and came across Carl Wigg Autoservices and spoke with April Wigg.
April was extremely concerned when I relayed my story, and she discovered the car had had advisories for the brakes for the previous two MOTs! I was genuinely outraged that the other, large company could be selling vehicles that are not roadworthy. Furthermore, this was not the first time she had encountered this situation involving the other dealer and so she offered to take this upon herself to try to sort for me as she had a contact whom she could approach.
I was so appreciative, it was such a relief to have someone who I could discuss these issues with, and who listened. Furthermore, April acknowledged the injustice that I was experiencing and genuinely wanted to help.
April liaised with the other dealer and organised for them to undertake the extensive repairs, without me having to get involved which was a massive relief for me. Despite being fully booked up, the whole team at Carl Wigg Autoservices ensured my repairs were swiftly dealt with to ease further inconvenience.
Carl Wigg Auto Services deserve 6/5 in all aspects of your rating system. Completely professional, approachable, considerate and extremely trustworthy. I shall be recommending them to everyone and will be using them from now on. The service provided has exceeded my expectations and I am proud to submit this statement to validate their accreditation to your Trusted Trader scheme.
