Interim service - also had an MOT end 2020 Very happy with the service given at Lakeside as usual. I've used you guys. The service from staff was friendly, efficient and helpful throughout the process, from booking in my MOT even when. Just to say the level of service was great as always and even in these difficult times you were able to do the MOT on.
Thanks to all the customers who submitted comments, we have so many that it's not possible to list them all, so here are a selection from all of our reviewers. Thanks so much to Jay and the Mechanics at Lakeside. The dealer had closed and I didn't fancy an independent garage as I had heard horror stories.

I stumbled across Lakeside Garage when I googled for Mazda Bongo specialists near me. It’s a bit of a trek, 20 miles or so, so not the closest, but I am glad I opted for them. I have used them twice in a diagnostic capacity and have been impressed by their knowledge, accuracy, comprehensive inspection and general approach.
The garage is very organised, clean and efficient (I asked to use the loo and even that bit….that customers never see ….was the same!), which I think speaks volumes about their working practices and customer service/communication – they want it to be right, even if you

Fantastic service - excellent value for money! Great customer service. After they run diagnostic tests on your car they send you a video that shows you exactly what your car needs and breaks down the cost - which is a really nice touch and step into the modern era! Highly recommended!

I am very happy with the recent work on my car, especially with the communication from Billy, on a particularly tricky fault with the car.
The video report is a brilliant idea, particularly for us car nuts. I always use Lakeside for servicing my Merc and recommend to my friends and family
Well done

What can I say Jay, Billy and the team are beyond helpful and welcoming. They have by far the best garage I’ve encountered. I have stopped taking my cars to dealer garages because they always mess something up, cost much more, don’t know left from right and are robots to deal with.
Jay and Billy on the other hand are happy to see you with a big smile. Their service is honest, trustworthy, reliable, well priced and fast. I’ve been using them for a few years now and recommend them to anyone who asks (including yourselves) I wish I’d discovered them earlier. I’ve wasted years and money

As a new Mazda Bongo owner I discovered from their website that Lakeside was the most convenient specialist garage for me to get expert help. From my early emails and now including two visits for work to be carried out, I have been very pleased with the efficiency of administration and the careful mechanical work carried out. The Service Adviser gave a fantastic first impression via his emails and then as we met him at the front desk. My first visit was also an opportunity to ask for a full inspection of the vehicle to enable me to get a clear idea of what needed to be done to prepare for touring

I have had my annual A and B Mercedes services there many times. Always a professional service from reception, including Darren (who has left) and now Billy! The prices are very reasonable, and everything is done on time. Their recent addition of the view cam, which allows a mobile phone view of what they have done, and any other potential works, is excellent! 10/10!!

Excellent professional service from beginning to end. Gave good telephone advice and guidance prior to booking. The technician using the video system was able to show all faults and advise on necessary repairs to save labour charges or defer until another time . All work completed on schedule and with pre quoted price so no surprises. Definitely recommend.
