Colchester MOT Centre: what do users think?
Mohamed Sathick: All your motor needs in one place.
ANDREI GRIGOREANU: This garage is not good at all the mechanics are not professionals and they don’t do a great job they’ll brake something and say that it already was damaged so they’ll try make you pay for it
ELLI IVAYLO: Loosing your time very bad experience waiting all day not answering the phone and laying about what have they done .
Marty Smith: Dropped my car off yesterday for the MOT. The staff were rude when I left it with them. Then I didn't receive a call to say what had happened (pass or fail) to which I've had to come down the next day as they didn't answer the phone. And as of now (9:04am) I've been standing outside for nearly an hour for them to open when the website and Google says 8am.
ARK ENTERPRISES: Nice experience
Millie: Car went in for MOT, , they rang to say it needed a wheel bearing, and they could do it that afternoon, while they still got car, gave me a price n fixed my car , passed mot. Very efficient.

GOWHER MIR: I paid £339 for MOT, service and repair. I am not happy I have been there 3 times since and left my car whole day and overnight still they couldn’t repair my car. At least I was expecting they will refund some money back. But the head mechanic said doesn’t know and understand what is the problem with the car. I was recommended by a friend to this garage but I am totally disappointed and I wish I had not been to this garage.

Halfords Autocentre Colchester: what do users think?
Dishal De Costa: One of the worst garages in Colchester. I spent nearly £400 and car was still broken. At the end I had to scrap my car. They just want money from customers and no respect to them at all. Do not spend money at this place.Services:Electrical,General repairs maintenance
John Humpston: good service
Sam Darby: If I could give Halfords less than one star, I would! We decided to go with them for my annual MOT, as they are a large company which made me think they would be more reliable and trustworthy (I could not have been more wrong).I purchased an older car (2007 model) with no MOT issues in the last three years and a few minor advisories further back in the MOT history. Although we had expected some minor issues due to the car's age, frankly we were in shock when they provided us with an extensive list of issues with the car that had prevented them from passing the MOT.To be honest, it wasn't even the fact that we failed that was the primary issue, it was what came next that put such a bad taste in our mouths. Throughout the overwhelming list of advisories and 'major issues' they put under our noses, they not only tried to add various advisories to the worksheet, but they also added 'suggested work' items that would have no impact on our retest (such as wheel alignments) and quoted excessively for everything (£123 to change one tyre, whereas you can change it for much less (£40) just around the corner).As we felt we had no choice, we took the vehicle to a local auto repair workshop to have some welding done (Halford's were unable to do this), and, we booked it in to have the other 'major advisory' mended/ a retest the following week (not knowing they were such scammers and that we could have had that item replaced elsewhere for much less).While completing the repair on the day of the retest, they broke a bolt and called us to tell us that we would need to collect the car the following day; during the call, they also indicated that, as one tyre was close to the legal limit, we should consider having it replaced as they "would hate to have us fail the retest because of it". I told them we would think about it and call them back as we had found a place that does them cheaper, and given it was just an advisory, we wanted to book the tire after the car passes the MOT, to which they said that they could then do it for £80 (£40 below the originally quoted £120).This is where it gets strange because while I was discussing what to do with my partner, I looked up the UK government website and saw that it clearly states that 'during a retest, only the major issues that caused the MOT to fail should be re-examined', therefore, they could not fail me based on the tyre advisory, that was just a lie. I promptly called them to tell them we would not be getting the tyre done with them as they couldn't fail us as indicated, to which they admitted that this was true.On the phone, it seemed as though the person I was speaking to had felt they had been 'caught out' which may explain why early the next morning we were called and informed that the welding on the car (one of the 'major issues' we needed to fix) had been done incorrectly and needed to be redone.We brought the car back to the welder, who was shocked. They pointed out that the welding was identical to the welding on the other side of the vehicle in the same spot, and that they had never had any issues with their work. We were advised by them to take our car elsewhere to have the MOT re-done and to stay away from Halfords. They believed that we had been given false information and that many advisories were just items added for them to reach their monthly quota.Having had enough of Halfords, we decided to heed the auto-repair shop's advice and took our car to a local, reputable shop (HiQ Colchester). We were in and out in 1 hour with a passed MOT, far fewer advisories, and a quote for a new tyre for £59! (Just a quick note, we were also within 10 days of the first test and could get a free partial MOT check with them, but given that the situation got so out of hand and predatory, we were incredibly uncomfortable to go back and were happy to pay HiQ for their service.) Unfortunately, I feel that we were taken advantage of, as my partner dropped the car off each time on her way to work, and they thought that they could rip her off as she is both a female and a foreigner.Service:General repairs maintenance
Edward Hyde: Ok but feel a burden to them as staff so busy just want to get rid of you if have issue with your car
Kyle Hunter: Great staff Free coffee 😂 oh and they fix cars if that's what your after.
Chaitanya Chaithu: Quite decent service centre but, a bit expensive for small things like bulbs and punctures.
Michael Iskas: I booked an appointment because my battery light was on. Their report was mentioning that I should make repairs which cost £2,500 and most of them were irrelevant to the battery, suggesting I should replace all the fuel injectors, spark plugs, fuel rail etc.. Of course I went somewhere else and changed battery and alternator which cost just 1/5th of the above price. I regret that I bought the motoring club subscription, I thought that Halfords was an honest company but I will never go again.Service:Electrical
Hugh Lecomte: Took my car in for a wheel alignment and one of the workers basically confirmed they took the car out for a joyride. I got the car back and the clutch was slipping meaning I need a new clutch. Unprofessional and awful service. Wouldn’t bother using them if it was the last place on earthService:Wheel alignment
Amanda Austen: I cannot adequately express in words how impressed I am with the whole team from Halfords Brook Street. I booked in last minute and they managed to squeeze me into a slot today, I didn't hold out much hope as another garage had failed to diagnose the issue my car was having (and charged me nearly £500 for the pleasure of not fixing it).Halfords could not have been more different, the issue was diagnosed and parts ordered within ten minutes. Staff were courteous, helpful, polite and explained everything in laymans terms. I have just gone to collect my car and it is repaired, MOT'd and ready to go within 7 hours of dropping it off this morning. I cannot thank them enough and reiterate how impressed I am with their service. Thank you again.Service:General repairs maintenance
Lisa Oakley: Very good service. Would highly recommend.
Gregory Edwards: What a lovely group of people.Service with a smile and a free Costa coffee machine.Service:Tires
Robin Hood: Complete front calliper and rear brake drum inspection carried out with professionalism efficiency and courtesy, this being the first visit to this particular Halfords auto centre and what a shining example they were representing this company, having visited many throughout the UK.Services:Brake service repair,Brakes
Dan Goldfarb: Service:Tires
Sophie Green: Really happy with the service we always receive from here!
Olivier M. MUPENDA: Brilliant centre with great friendly and professional staffService:Tires
Peter Robinson: The job was for MOT and service, which were carried out by friendly and efficient staff in a pleasant environment.
henry luis: I took my car to have the engine starter repaired, which is supposedly bad because it doesn't start. I take it 8 in the morning and at 12 they call me to tell me that the repair is worth 1400 pounds but that they can't do the electrical art because they don't know, to take it to another place for the electrical, useless that's what they are useless thieves who It is a ciche from the year 2006 with basic mechanics and electronics that is not a Tesla, I paid 50 pounds to not tell me anything because they did not give me any solution. take note HALFORDS DOES NOT SERVE MECHANICSServices:Engine repair,Electrical
Katherine Wright: Superb service. The team took the time to explain what needed to be done to my car. The mot and service was thorough, and mycar drives like new! Nothing was too much trouble ~ friendly and professional. Give them a pay rise Halfords!
Jimmy Smith: Great honest service
S Stavri: Had an MOT. Amazing service. Very quick and friendly staff.
Reagan Hart: Booked in for the day after a Boxing Day with no problems. Booked a Battery Check with a view to getting a new battery after my car needed jump starting on Christmas morning. The guys on Reception were super helpful and even checked the Alternator as well (just in case). When they came back, they gave me all the results and said I didn’t need a new battery. When I asked why it had died I was given a very technical explanation and told a good ‘run’ would do sort it.Drove home after Christmas and everything is working again (cruise control had stopped working as well after battery died).I was touched by the honesty, as I had gone in asking for a new battery and they could have easily upsold me. Will most definitely use again if needed.Service:Battery

Daniel Carter: Bought a car from Charlotte and couldn't be happier. The process was quick and painless, Rallysport sorted everything out and gave me all the info I needed.The cat was great value, even without allmof the extras Rally sport offer. They got the car in perfect shape, gave it a service and free MOTs for life. I definitely recommend both Rally sport, and Charlotte
Scott Hunnybun: Staff are all lovely & then bestbplace to have an MOT done in colchester.
adrian shults: Just took my car for mot free coffee and wi-fi what more could you ask for the only thing the was no where to park when I arrived

Adam Fletcher: The best garage in Colchester bar none. Being using Nikki and the team for about 6 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else.
oz Osman: Fantastic service, nothing is too much for this garage. I have my MOT and service done here every year and feel confident with their work and honesty. It’s so hard to find an honest and helpful garage.
Daniel Munyenya: Alwayz great service from the team at Rallysport; they have looked after my cars with service, MOTs and general repairs. Excellent all the time and helpful team.
Matthew Gauden: Always good service here. Friendly and knowledgeable. Good waiting area with free WiFi that actually works (unlike a lot of others) and a good coffee machine. Oh and still the cheapest MOT price I can find anywhere in Colchester 😊
Ben: Came to view a car after seeing some ‘in depth’ videos of it on WhatsApp. The car had loads of faults that had clearly been avoided on the videos and not even mentioned. The MOT they had also done didn’t reflect any of the issues including cut tires. Overall quite disappointed with the service as car wasn’t as described so a long journey to see a misadvertised car.This is not inaccurate as the only damage mentioned was some stone chips on the front and none of the other issues where mentioned or highlighted to me in any communications. If I could attach the WhatsApp videos I would but Google Maps limits the file size. The sales person didn’t even know what car they where recording, calling it a Kia Sportage when it is nothing likeIn response to the owner this is till not correct as none of the issues where stated in the videos. Shame on the dealership for entertaining such misinformation. As some one who used to work in the trade i understand how it works and know exactly what misadvertising is and this is it! That was not an in depth video of the car, just because it features a walkaround of the car does not make it in depth. I also explained on the messages that i would not be collecting the car in person and someone would be coming on my behalf, and yes I did intend on buying the vehicle, hence why I put a deposit on and came on an 8.5 hour round trip to see the vehicle, which cost a significant amount in fuel. So tell me if that doesn’t show intent to buy the vehicle, what does?
Phil: MOT carried out while I waited with complimentary hot drinks. Excellent experience
Chris Howell: I have been using Rallysport for several years now. They always give an excellent service, customer care is great. My car is serviced and mot'd by them, also had some bodywork repaired too, which was done perfectly. Very much recommend them.Service:General repairs maintenance

They also give excellent advice about what options you have if something needs attending to. I shall continue to use them for all my motoring requirements.Service:General repairs maintenance

Andy Coopef: Staff unhelpful did not try to rectify problem with my order.felt they were doing me a favour even though I had booked a slot.why I had to give them my car keys and sit in the waiting room as they were only fitting a wiper beggars belief doubt after this experience would I use them again or recomend them to anyone

BYRON DAVIES: Wow! An amazing service with spot on communication always kept up to date with everything. Polite friendly staff - the business should be extremely proud of the service that the Peartree centre has provided!To top all of this off I couldn’t thank Gary enough for taking time out of his day to give my car a full valet inside and out this was the cherry on top to a fantastic experience.You have a very happy customer and now a regular one that will be returning for future work. Once again many thanks to the wonderful staff.
Nick Paris: Waited 20 mins in a que to hear a Halfords guy talking with a customer demonstrating he had very little understanding of car mechanics. Yet he is working in a Halfords service centre. When I got to the front of the que I was told they were unable to help with my cars dead battery and that I should book an apointment. Not at all helpful or from what I heard knowledgable ! Take your car to a real garage 👍

Tony Hunt: Great set up and lovely helpful staff however I don't expect to wait an hour for 2 tyres to be changed especially when I've prebookedServices:Tires,Wheel alignment
Demi Marie: Well I regret using this garage for my interim service.Dropped my car off Saturday morning and was not completed (due to their own mistake) until Sunday late afternoon before they closed.When dropping the car off for the service I felt welcomed and positive, however this soon changed. Was called up to say that my car had a oil leak when checking the car and needed a whole new sump plug, pan etc which they said "You will need to pay us £274 to have this repaired before you take your car away" so my question was how did you get to this fault... Turns out they created this fault by doing up the sump plug too tight / cross threaded and tried to blame the fault elsewhere when there has been no oil leak before I took the car in and no major drop in oil level.I may be a young women and you've clearly thought you could get me to spend more to help your commission but luckily I have family that's been in the industry and knew more than you thought. Finally picked up my car and they did a "quick fix" so I could get my car back and now having to take it to someone that actually knows what they are doing to fix their issues, which they wouldn't do themselves. Was given many advisories even though my MOT passed with none but soon as i said i will get these done elsewhere, the tone of voice change from the gentleman and not all these advisories were on the end report they printed for me... mmm funny that! Shocked completely thinking that how well known halfords are, they would be more reliable but think NOT.Service:General repairs maintenance
Jennifer Bailey: Went to this Halfords a few times before and recently got my MOT done on 25th October 2022, They were so helpful and so welcoming, Cait at the front always help you understand what’s happening with your car and the testers/ mechanics are very nice here too, they even showed me what was wrong with my car and when it would need fixing.They are definitely not like most mechanics when they see women,This Halfords actually care about you and your safety.Thank you Halfords Angorra Colchester.Services:Brakes,General repairs maintenance,Vehicle safety inspection
robert sloan: Excellent service, great can do attitude.Service:Electrical repair
Karen Morovic: Very impressed with the service that I received today (24/10/2022). The staff were very friendly and helpful with all concerns about my car resolved to my complete satisfaction by them. Thank you. Your care and service were greatly appreciated. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend.Services:General repairs maintenance,Wheel alignment,Auto battery replacement,Vehicle safety inspection
I Grad: Service:Vehicle safety inspection
John Inglis: Booked car in for diagnostic check and given no report but told verbally I had a turbo over boost issue. Halfords of no help at all and doubt whether the check was carried out. Took car to verified servicing facility instead that properly diagnosed fault and provided report with video link. Diagnostic check from Halfords at £49.99 complete waste of money.Service:Exhaust

And the car had been cleaned and hoovered when I picked it up! Highly recommended. Thanks.Services:Air conditioning,Tires,Oil change
M Chaplin: Had full service and MOT. Used Severalls industrial estate Shaiklys for few years now. Wouldn'tgo anywhere else.
DAVID MORRIS: Had a warning light issue diagnosed as a glow plug issue. I was guided through the implications, options and potential cost. The replacements were carried out swiftly and at the price advised. Not a cheap repair but that is the crazy cost of VW glow plugs (e.g. one has a sensor so over £120 for that alone)! From drop off to pick up, exemplary service was the order of the day. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Penny Hicks: I had my car MOT'd and serviced today at Shaikly motors in Heckworth Close. I have been using Shaikly for a few years now and would highly recommend them. I find them to be professional, friendly and efficient. I never feel that they find things to charge me for that aren't necessary and the receptionist always explains exactly what has been carried out which is always appreciated.

Nikki: Thank-you so much for fitting a new radiator fan on my stepson's car today. He only rung up yesterday, so was very grateful you could fit him in today. Very reasonable priced too.
Jessica Bassnett: I took my car in today hoping to book in to diagnose and fix a knocking noise. Considering it was a Monday afternoon I didn’t expect to be seen straight away and be done within just over an hour. I’m a young women and was worried they’d overprice or add on things that didn’t need doing but they were so genuine and honest and really reasonably priced (not to mention being in, fixed and out within a few hours). Highly recommend! I’m moving soon but will be coming back to use them as they’re worth it. Thanks Stanway Automotive!
A'mari Douglas: After being told I needed a huge amount on my ‘free health check’ I took my Mercedes’ to Stanway Automotive.
