After I dropped off my car I received a phone call as they couldn't find the fault I had described and that they didn't want to to do work that they regarded as unnecessay - not many garages would have done that! I explained further about the fault and after further inspection and following my instructions of how to demonstrate the fault they found it and carried out the work as requested. One extremely happy customer!
-
Staff always polite,helpful and trustworthy would highly recommend.
-
I have used Dave Coles Garage for a number of years and have always found them brilliant. They clearly explain the cost and reasons why, the quality of the work has always been of the highest standard and I feel they try to give you the best value for money they can. I always feel confident in taking my car to them as I know it will be check and fixed correctly.
-
Have used this garage since we moved to the area in Dec 2010 and found them to be very honest, reliable and very efficient and always helpful. Recommended to a friend and she couldnt thanks us enough. Always recommend to others.

Very efficient. Pleasure to deal with. Happily recommend to anyone

Very friendly service and regular contact maintained to update on the car's process through the MOT and service.
-
I've used this garage for some years and have never been disatisfied with the service or costs. They have even attended my house to rectify non-starting issues. Highly recommended.
-
Excellent garage very happy
-
The work that needed to be done on my car took longer than was expected but the garage called me to advise me of this and when they would be able to have the work done by. They also showed concern that I would not have my car over the weekend and offered to loan me one. They also securely stored my car in a locked garage over the weekend while the garage was shut.
-
I have used this garage regularly for years and the service has always been very good
-
Dave always provides a value, quality service and you can trust that all works are carried out with complete honesty. All staff are well trained, polite and helpful.
-
I have used this garage previously, and have always been extremely pleased with the level of service, attention to detail and the professional manner in which they conduct their buisness. I have always found them helpful, and on previous occassions when I have had my previous car services by them, if faults were found they took time to explain the problem and the alternative options and as far as I can tell were price sensative in their quotations. Indeed I have never been disapointed.
-
hassle free, friendly service. I will have no hesitation in using Dave Coles in the future.
-
A very good garage crew, very helpful, and nothing was to muc trouble.
-
brilliant service collected and dropped off the car and carried out the work needed
-
I experienced a fault with the rear suspension on my car and was extremely worried I was going to be faced with a huge, huge garage bill. It was recommed, by a friend too let Dave look at the car as they have always recieved a high quality service that excells all previous experiences with main dealers and other local garages. "As with taking a child to the doctors", When taking the car to Dave, the fault disappeared!! Dave throughly checked the car over and if was agreed, to monitor the situation and bring the car straight back if and when it occured again. A day or so later, when least expected, the fault re-appeared. I contacted Dave and booked the car in. On the way to the garage the same thing happened. I was extremely worried of the costs envolved, as had previously experienced costly, poor and unreasurring service from other garages in the past... Dave Coles was amazing. The service which I recieved was second to none. The garage provided first class communication, clear fault diagnostic, detailed costing and an accurate time of when the car would be ready. The garage explained the repair went smoothly and took less time than initially thought and this was reflected in a deduction in the final invoice. Dave Coles has definatly restored my faith in car repairs and I can whole heartedly recommend his service and support to all.
-
Extremely happy with the customer care I received and I feel that I can trust the garage to be open and honest with me. I have already recommended the garage to friends.
-
A garage I have used before and will continue to use in the future
-
This is the second time I have used this company to carry out a repair on my car . First time to change the timing belt and this time to fix an unexpected failure of the rear anti roll bar. Both occassions I have been really happy with the service received. The company came by recommendation from a friend and I wouldn't hesitate to pass on the recommendation.
-
They were extreamly helpful, they were able to fit me in at a moments notice. I thought it might be the starter motor that would need replacing but it was only the battery, I was glad that they were honest about this and costing less than I originally expected.
-
This garage has always been very helpful and have explained all necessary work that needs/needed to be done.
-
A quick and friendly service I have continued to use for many years. I make a point of recommending this garage to those car owners I come in contact with.
-
great garage, completely trustworthy only carries out work thats needed. would definatly reccomend to friends and family. best garage i've ever used. FULLY SATISFIED.
-
I WOULD AND HAVE RECOMMEND THIS GARAGE TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY

I started to use this garage because my daughter used them, via personal recommendation. They are helpful, friendly and I trust them completely with the safety of my car. My second daughter who has just passed her driving test will also use them as you cannot be in any way complacent about the roadworthy condition and safety of your car.

I live in Cornwall and have found this Garage so good that I bring my car here for service and repair. The level of service and care is amazing and at a cost that is so very reasonable. If the banks and other service industries operates to this standard the country would be in a wonderful position.
-
We are always happy with the standard of work that Dave coles and his collegues have done for our car over the years.

I would never trust my car to another garage as have had exceptional work for last few years done at Dave Coles.

-
phoned and tolld the full service i had requested was not necessary as i was not doing the milreage and so the cost was a lot less
-
A friendly staff that give the impression nothing is too much trouble. I also got the impression that the staff thoroughly enjoyed working there. It's a shame the garage is in a back street, more people would want to use it if they knew it existed. I used to run a repair garage facility in the Royal Navy so I'm a bit fussy who I go to and this garage gets all my families work.
-

-
We have used Dave Coles Garage for approx 10 years, possibly more, this was before we moved into Gosport. My husband has owned Rover and Jaguar Cars and when I was driving, my own Rover & Nissan Cars. Dave has repaired accident damage & serviced/MOT the cars when required. In addition Dave has helped when the cars wouldn't start and as mentioned in a previous section, repaired the seat to my Mobility Scooter which had broken off from the frame. I am always impressed with the level of friendly service we receive and will continue to use the Garage & recommend it to others.
