Use at your peril.

Use at your peril.
Owned by Direct Line - so my car was automatically sent there. After someone drove into the back of me at low speed there was minor damage to my bumper. When my car came back the vinyl bumper looked like it was from a 10 year car with UV damage and it did not match any of the other vinyl trim. The wheel arch trim had also not been clipped on properly.
The took at back for "another go" and this time it came back with a new bumper. The wheel arch trims were all out of line and one had now been scratched, the parking sensors were stuck on with tape and so fell out. The respray had been badly taped off and there was a lump in the paint in one place - and this was after it had supposedly been signed off as "spot on" by the workshop manager. Let's just say I never gave them a third go and I went elsewhere.

What a fantastic team.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank the team at DLG Auto Services for the outstanding service following my recent repair.

After the collision (which thankfully wasn’t my fault), I was genuinely impressed by how quickly and efficiently everything was handled. The repairs were completed far sooner than I expected—especially given how close it is to Christmas—and the car looks and feels like new again.

I really appreciated being kept informed at every single stage of the process. Both the collection and delivery drivers were polite, friendly, and professional, which made the whole experience even smoother. Having the car returned fully valeted was a lovely touch and very much appreciated.

The team’s work ethic, attention to detail, and customer care truly deserve recognition. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful situation such a positive experience.

Excellent bodywork and paint repair…

Excellent bodywork and paint repair carried out to a very high standard. The headlight replacement was fitted perfectly and the paintwork was colour matched flawlessly - you genuinely can’t tell any work has been done. Great communication throughout, friendly service, and everything was completed ahead of time. Highly recommended thankyou :)

OUTSTANDING!!

Absolutely great service, after a small dent in the side of my car, they picked up and dropped off my car (even though it was a Manchester Garage), repaired quickly within a few days too. They even returned the car cleaned and valeted too. They offered regular updates on progress too. Highly recommend and highly professional.

Repair 100% Satisfaction

Well; after repair delays seemingly down to receiving parts ordered for repair, (seemingly that issue can affect other make of cars) due to the present World supply issues, car was delivered back to me, body work replacement/paint was indistinguishable from original, blending in perfectly from new to old.

***6 stars out of 5***

Took 1 day for the garage to solve a huge rewiring issue due to rodent damage. They had chewed through looms. The car is valeted on the inside and outside. I barely drove the courtesy car it was all fixed so quick. What an excellent job, I've never used a garage like it. I know where I'll be taking my car the next time I have any issues. Thank you team!

Poor communication but Chris Hulme very helpful

Impossible to get through. They fo not answer the phone. Message to say they will call back but they do not. However they did call me first thing the next morning. The parts manager Chris Hulme was most helpful. Problem lies with Tesla but I understand that in these days of last minute production parts are a proble.
