Reviews

RECOMMENDED - The nicest, honest car mechanic I've ever met.

I've taken my car to Colin at Thorpe Garage now several times over a year and will continue to go back to him as his service is outstanding and educational. He explains what he has found on your vehicle and advises honestly and practically, NEVER pressuring you into getting something done just for the sake of business, like some places I have been to in the past. Colin thoroughly checks things, knows what he's talking about with decades of experience in his trade, and explains things to those of us that know nothing about automechanics so we can rest assured and make an informed decision. I would highly recommend Thorpe Garage to anyone looking for a car mechanic for servicing or whatever. Thanks again Colin! See you next time ;) Cam

I recently took my car to Colin's garage after it showed signs of faults that were difficult to diagnose. Colin, the owner and sole operator, was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain everything he found wrong with the car in great detail. His explanations were clear and easy to understand, even for someone like me with limited car knowledge. Colin went above and beyond to identify and fix the issues, showcasing his dedication and expertise. I highly recommend this garage to anyone needing quality work and exceptional service.

Colin at Thorpe Garage is a truly superb multi-skilled motor vehicle engineer

Impossible to say enough times that Colin is the most competent multi-skilled motor vehicle engineer that I have had the pleasure to know and I started working on my old Ford Popular in 1962. He provides an honest and professional service every time and will always help whenever he can. Today he has got our son's very old car all sorted, after engine warning lights were showing. Wonderful, as our son starts a new job tomorrow with a half hour journey each way. Thanks again Colin.

How do I start this review, apart from saying how amazing Colin was to my daughter and I. My daughter is a long way from home at university; her car had a problem, so I googled garages for her, Thorpe Garage had 5* and good reviews. Colin answered and he was so lovely and honest that i felt at ease booking her car in. From then on I couldn't fault him, his work and how he was with my daughter. There is nothing worse than being miles away when things go wrong. 100% would recommend Colin, a true gentleman.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review and personal compliments here. As a father myself I know how helpless you feel when they are a long way from home with no car knowledge. I'm so glad I set your mind at ease Jessica. Colin H.
