Attention to detail
Impressive work yet again from the J Day Engineering Team! I find it so reassuring to take my 2004 Audi TT to J Day - the mechanics spent hours making it roadworthy after I bought it in Autumn 2004 for £1,000. J Day have just completed its second Full Annual Service and they took time to explain what had been done and what may need to be done in the future. Approachable, informative, helpful. They appear to work with passion and it drives like a dream. Thanks for all the hard work!

Suprise visit with punctured tyre

I visited J Days out of the blue with a punctured tyre on my car and they bent over backwards to get me back on the road as soon as they could. I didn't even need to get down on my knees and beg, and I am so very grateful to the guys who are always as helpful as possible to each customers unique situation. Also the bill was more than reasonable and the service recieved better than I could have dreamed! A very happy customer.

I have used JDay for a few years now and their customer service, communication and quality of work is excellent. I have recommended friends and will continue to do so. Also worth mentioning is that the staff are always respectful and friendly.

As usual, the staff were friendly and helpful when I arrived. The service was done competently, as was the MOT. And my unexpected (to them) request to collect the car early to travel to an appointment was met with time to spare. I can't recommend this company highly enough.

We have been using J Day Engineering for quite a few years for a range of cars from modern saloons to older type Defender to classic cars and the service has always been excellent and very helpful indeed when we have ebbs in a mess with cars and we have had other complicating issues. This week I left my house keys and key ring for another car on the counter by mistake and they kindly dropped them round - the person lives nearby.

Another professional, slick service and Mot from JDays, who always consults before carrying out additional work. Staff are courteous, polite, and have a good sense of humour, which makes them fun to deal with. Our garage is of choice for both our cars.

Unscheduled tyre replacement

Just heading off to work, I managed to find a screw with my tyre sidewall less than a mile from home. AA suggested a couple of places 10 miles away, but I thought I'd check with JDAY, as they're within 4. Not only did they have a suitable tyre on the shelf, thanks to a cancellation (which they called me back regarding) they fitted me in immediately! Speedy replacement and a very considerate team!
