    "Could not show me a proof of the car's register on order of the job to be done. Not fair prices, my car was left without an air filter. Zero stars, The worst experience in my life. I would not recommend."

    "I took my car for an MOT and a short while later they said it had failed on - tyre tread requirement being 1.0 ( the correct is 1.6mm). -parking brake being less than 50% (the requirement is 16%). and the service brake and brake hose being broken they also referred to the wrong tyre. However, A second garage passed my MOT and found no fault with any of these. college street motors wanted cash in hand and could not provide a receipt for the transaction. They quoted me £400 for repairs that do not need doing and appear to have tested my car as if it were a HGV. when I returned to get my money back he would not even look at the certificate and was very rude and unprofessional. I would not recommend"

    Trader reply: "We advised customer to complain to VOSA as we found all faults with car including brake pipes fitted but still leaking. We could not risk damaging rolling road if all brake fluid or pipe bust so this is reason. Also exhaust rear section was so rusty and slight blow trye was completely bald inside edge. As previously advised we said if customer was not happy to go to VOSA or another Mechanic. Kind regards, College Street Motor Ltd"

    "In just a few months the new part of exhaust that was fitted was not new but had been patched up with paste and painted. to look like new. So now it is blowing once again.. Pad £165. I wouldn’t recommend."

    Trader reply: "Thank you for your feedback, customer service is very important to us. As the car is more than 30 years old, we had to source a second hand exhaust which the client was fully aware of. We always tell our customers to return if there are any problems, and sadly the client decided not to. Regards, College Street Motors Ltd."
