Annual MOT and additional fault rectification
I personally will not consider using any other garage including a garage very close to where I live as I know I can totally rely on Warren and his team at W.S. Franks Garage. They always consistently deliver a fantastic service, always going the extra mile to deliver total customer satisfaction and do anything in their power to help when necessary. On this occasion, my cars MOT was due, plus because of its age and mileage I fully expected some remedial repairs may be required which was the case. However, as agreed even before I had left the premises, Warren had plans in place, parts on order and the car scheduled in for repair at his and my earliest convenience, which was outstanding. In addition to everything mentioned here he will keep to his planed schedule and budget, but better either if possible. However, if there are any unforeseen issues or concerns arising, Warren will always communicate with you, outlining all options available. I have no hesitation in recommending Warren and his team at W.S. Franks Garage.

Honest and fabulous service
Great to find an efficient, honest and reliable garage. I required an alternator and a new battery ( previous garage fitted the wrong size battery!) Brilliant service right from the beginning when I first called to book my car in for repair . I would highly recommend this garage and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.

Outstanding
After suffering from no air con in my Shogun for several weeks, I just had to get it fixed. I turned to my warranty cover who sent me to several garages, none of which managed to fix the problem. I took it to Franks Garage. They finally found the problem, sorted it out. I now have such super air con working in my Shogun. It is simply wonderful to have such a skilled and competent garage who can fix my car on the first attempt. Super service.

Outstanding quality of service - as always at Franks Garage
Franks Garage quickly identified the problem with my wife's car, booked it in and completed the work within the agreed time scale. The cost of repairs is very reasonable, considering the high quality of technical and customer service provided. Communication before and after the repair was excellent. What make service outstanding at this garage is the trust you can place on the honest advice they give and the work they carry out. Our whole family has taken vehicles to this garage for over 20 years and received unparalleled service throughout this time, without exception. Franks Garage is highly regarded as a quality business in this area.

Proper Old School Service
For the very first time in over 18 years, I have had my car serviced by an independent garage. Up and till now, I always took it back to the franchise garage, in this case, Mitsubishi. Since 1990, I have been a loyal Shogun owner, having ploughed though about 12 Shoguns during this time. For the first time ever, I have held onto my Shogun past the second or third year, I'm into year four with this Shogun. I was hurried to learn that to have my Shogun serviced and MOT'ed was going to set me back £935.00. I asked for justification as to what they were going to undertaken for this amount of money, sadly they were not doing anything special. I had thought that all sorts of replacement parts were about to be fitted, but no. So, I thought I would get a second opinion, as the Shogun is out of warranty. I had heard about Franks Garage in Kingswood, and all that I had heard was no short of wonderful. So, I went to see them and was so impressed with the one to one customer service, advice, but more importantly, the no flannel approach to dealing with a customer. I had, like so many others, suffered awful customer service via my Mitsubishi garage, and to be fair, was on the point of selling my beloved Shogun and moving over to Range Rover. The way my Mitsubishi garage has treated me, was nothing short of diabolical. So, I have now had to have the Shogun serviced and MOT'ed at Franks Garage. For the first time I have been left feeling totally pleased and satisfied, both with a job very well done, and the great customer service. I would say, without contradiction, my Shogun has had possibly the best treatment it has ever had. I simply cannot praise Franks Garage highly enough. It goes without saying, Franks Garage, has now got a very loyal customer, thank you for restoring my faith in getting a job well done and treating like a customer should.

I always get all excellent level of service from Warren Franks and his team. The work is carried out to a high standard. If any extra work is required, I am contacted first to confirm that I want the extra work to be done. It is always made clear if anything requires attention before the next routine visit, e.g. tyre wear, brake disk/pad wear etc. A very good garage to have so local to where I live.
