Mark Schietaert T/A I V S Garage Services

My 6 year old Yeti required its Cam belt and Waterpump changing due to age. Had a quote from the main dealer and a national non-franchise chain. Asked IVS for a quote. Mark said he would call back which he did after 10 minutes. The quote was considerably less than the other two. A date was agreed for the work to be done. The car was left at 8.30am on the due date. Phone call received at 1.30pm to say the car was ready. Price was as quoted. Parts that had been replaced shown to me. Work logged on the Skoda system. Car clean and tidy ready to go. Impressed.

I have used IVS to MOT and service my VW Golf for a number years having been recommended to me by a friend. They have always done a thorough job and provide an excellent service. I have every confidence in them and have found them to be trustworthy and helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

My car broke down last week so I asked the AA to take it to the nearest Halfords to get fixed. The car needed major engine work and Halfords were unable to fix it, so they recommended I V S Specialists. Mark at I V S was extremely helpful and he went out of his way to help me with my car. My car is now running great, and I will be going back to the same garage for my 12 month service and MOT. I have also recommendee the garage to friends and family.

Only one complaint. I didn't meet these guys 10 years ago. They have restored my faith in the motor mechanic profession. My son has a Golf 1.9 TDI. Its a 2008 model but reasonably low mileage. It developed a starting fault. I took it to two garages both of which failed to fix the problem, charged a ridiculous amount of money and told me that its an old car and we should get rid of it! Then someone told me about Mark at IVS. I when to see him, explained my tail of woe and everything was plain sailing from then on. Correct diagnostics, Immediate high quality repair all at a reasonable price. He is honest, knowledgeable, sympathetic and fair. What more could you ask for. I have just been on a 120 mile test drive and it is working perfectly. If you have a VW, Audi, Skoda or Seat. Don't go anywhere else.
