Independent garage on Foundry Road since 1994. We’ll tell you what’s failed, what’s advisory, and what can honestly wait until next year.
No forms, no “an advisor will call you back”. Two taps writes the text, you press send, and we confirm the slot the same morning.
Bigger jobs get a written quote before a spanner moves. If we open something up and find worse underneath, we stop and ring you — you decide, not us.
All prices include VAT. We only fit parts we’d put on our own cars, and the old ones go in a box for you to look at.
Nothing gets done that you haven’t agreed to. That’s the whole reason people drive past two chains to get here.
Tap the job and the day above. Your phone opens a text with both already written in.
Anything beyond what you booked gets a call, a price and a photo. You say yes or no.
Old parts in a box, invoice itemised, warranty on paper. No “sundries” line.
312 Google reviews, 4.8 average. The word that comes up most is “honest”, which is a low bar for a garage and somehow still rare.
“Main dealer quoted £900 for brakes and discs all round. TrueNorth checked and said the rears had another two years in them. £190, done by lunch.”
“Failed on a bulb and a tyre. They rang, told me the price, fixed it and retested free. Total was £74 including the MOT itself.”
“Clutch went on the school run. Courtesy car sorted within the hour so I didn’t miss a single pickup. Car back Thursday, exactly as quoted.”
Two ramps, three of us, and a kettle that’s always on. Park on the forecourt — if it’s full, the layby opposite is fine.
Tell us the registration and roughly what it’s doing. We'll say what it’ll cost to look, and whether it’s the sort of thing that can wait a fortnight.
