Westmoreland Garage

Had a warning light come up and sudden, random breakdowns one weekend morning. Rang them and described the issue, they told me to bring the car straight in and within an hour they'd diagnosed the problem (faulty crankshaft sensor) and fitted the replacement on the Monday morning. They're very friendly, efficient and the work actually came in slightly lower than the price quoted. This was my second dealing with Westmoreland Garage and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

The lady in the office who booked me in opined it could well be the relay but said a technician would make a diagnosis. I got a call back that the diagnosis was indeed a faulty glow plug relay and it could be fixed next day when the new part would be delivered. Car was ready next day before lunch but I couldn't collect until 4PM. That was not a problem and the total invoice was £204.00 as predicted. Everyone at the garage, both in Reception and the Workshop were exceedingly helpful and polite. In 56 years of motoring, this has been the most enjoyable garage experience I have ever had. I own three cars, two Mercedes (A130 long wheelbase Classic + an E350 CDI Cabriolet) and a Triumph TR6 classic car. Westmoreland Garage will be entrusted with all 3 in future after this second experience.

Took my ancient car to Westmoreland Garage as it was really unwell and possibly terminal and therefore headed for scrap. It has been resurrected and is now back to it's old fine self. Staff were incredibly helpful as always. I have to confess that I have used this garage for many years and they have been consistently helpful, efficient and nothing is too much trouble. I strongly recommend this garage, they are brilliant.

Car was towed to this garage following breakdown- I chose the garage based on being a member of ' Which Trusted traders' . Throughout the process we were kept informed of the cause of the breakdown and subsequent repairs required and cost. When we collected the car the parts which had to be replaced were given to us with a good expanation. We then had a test drive to ensure we were happy with car. We were advised to contact the car manufacturers regarding the breakdown and given a report without extra cost to support this. I would definitely recommend Westmorland Garage and will use them in future. Maria 18/2/18

Took my car in to Westmoreland for its MOT & it failed on the emissions, shock absorber & rear brake bind. They told me I'd probably be looking at a new catolic converter, lambda sensor And temperature thing but it needed 'looking into' first. Told me they charge £80 an hour so I took my car somewhere cheaper in good faith & believing I may have to scrap entirely. Went to the other garage who emissions tested it to see what the problem was, only to be told that it passed with flying colours & there was nothing wrong with it. Shock absorber still needed doing but rear brake bind only needed some rust knocking off and wasn't really a fail in most garages books. They told me first emissions test clearly hadn't been done with the engine warm enough. I asked Westmoreland for a refund as I had to pay for a second MOT due to their dodgy emissions test & they refused. Loads of other people also had their cars failing and now I've got a big question mark over them. Wouldn't use again.

Have used Westmoreland Garage for some time now and have never been let down.
