Attended with a Renault Scenic showing a Power Boost Problem. Had it to local garage who could not find fault. Took it to TWS Barker as they are Renault Specialist. I was a new customer and immediately struck by the professionalism and excellent customer service demonstrated. Dropped car off at 10am, by 3.30 the car was fixed and ready to collect. They had stripped the car to check for leaks to Power Boost and Intercooler system, ran a proper Renault Diagnostic check and discovered a faulty sensor. This was replaced and the fault rectified. The price was very very competitive at £135 all in. I will definitely be using this garage again and have no hesitation in recommending them. Brilliant service and lovely people.

Spent time with tom waiting for my pick up after dropping the car, and you couldn't wish to meet a nicer fella. Diagnosis of the engine fault found a faulty inter cooler which was sourced and replaced in the same day and at a very reasonable price. Customer service was excellent and price matched. What's more could you ask for.

Tom and Steve, have worked on my cars(Saab Audi, Suzuki, and Land Rover) for the last 16 years. I use Tom and Steve to the exclusion of any other garage. They have never failed me, in terms of job completion, competitive cost and their customer care is beyond comparison. I have no qualms in unconditionally recommending TW & S Barker.

Honest and straightforward small business. Used for the first time (based on above "Which?" recommendations) to carry out service and MOT on my 11 year old Toyota Avensis. Although not an official MOT test station, Tom uses the services of an adjacent Test Station just a few units away at the same location for a discounted price (£30)...which he passes on to the customer. Happy to recommend to others and will use Tom again as and when the need arises. Simon Taylor

Took my Renault Clio 182 sports for a small service and MOT. Their honesty was eye opening. The car had had unnecessary work done on it by previous garages. They explained what and when I would need doing for future maintenance of the vehicle. Price was really fair. Left knowing I hadn't been ripped off.

Was recommended to me by a friend. Have used for MOTs and service and general help (eg replacement of dud bulbs which was done f.o.c.) for several years and have recommended Tommy to others. He refuses to overcharge.
