A. P.

Just brilliant! My car needed a general service and a couple other things. The guys at Defoe Tyres did an amazing job and my car is running perfectly! Thanks so much. I'm definitely going to be a regular at their garage!!

Massive thank you to Defoe Tyres for taking my car in at short notice over the busy festive period. The cost of the works came in a lot cheaper than the quotation over the phone, mainly because I had the wrong cause of the problem. Honest and reliable service. Would highly recommend.

O. C.

Incredibly helpful. Great service when my Campavan had a sudden problem. Van was fitted in and sorted out at last-minute on a Saturday morning. Thankyou to Defoe team!

J. a. g.

These guys are just fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone. They are always honest, so quick, they really care for their customers. It's a pleasure always to come over. I really have good words for them.

J. B.

A great little place with plenty of knowledge of mechanics and how it should be done. They look after your interests and their honesty gives them integrity and encourages repeat business. Recommend to give them a call to book in advance. They even dropped my car back to a nearby flat free of charge! Highly recommended!

E. Z. D.

Honest hard working people taking care of your vehicle as if it's their own car. They fully inform you about what work needs to be done. Don't expect nasty surprises as these guys will only carry out the necessary extra work only after confirming it with you!

B. M.

Excellent service, polite & knowledgeable staff & terrific value for money. Will definitely go back again when my car needs tyres or servicing.

A. L.

Very happy with Errol's service. It might seem like a small under-equipped shed, but they know what they're doing and are decent people (unlike some giants of the tyre industry). I had a slow puncture and he repaired it efficiently (even though it had that stupid foam lining!). A (future) fellow Tesla owner as well!

C. W.

A trust worthy garage and reliable and very helpful staff

I. B.

Erol and his team were fantastic. I would highly recommend Defoe Tyres.

r. g.

very professional. They managed to remove a screw and a nail from two seperate tyres within 30 mins. The cost was reasonable for the work completed. I did not need to buy new tyres.

G. C.

Excellent service. I pulled up with a slow puncture and within half an hour the tyre was repaired and back on the car. The tyre pressure in the other 3 wheels was checked without the need for me to ask. I've never had all tyre pressure checked in other tyre centres. They went the extra mile by checking the pressure all the wheels.

C. L.

Good, rapid service at a good price

Defoe Tyres is the most honest, reasonably priced and swift garage I've ever used. Erol and his crew are by far the best mechanics I've ever had look after my cars. Whether I've needed a simple service, a serious repair or just some advice, they've never let me down. They always offer options for new parts at different price points, so you can make the decision about what you spend. If you need them to, they will also prioritise things that need fixing if you can't quite afford to fix more than one thing if it's needed. Defoe Tyres is a true, well established and family run, old school garage, and I'll never go anywhere else if I can help it. I would strongly advise anybody to at least give them a call if you need an MOT or service. You won't be disappointed.

M. K.

A fantastic, family run business that unlike most garages today offers excellent service, great advice, speedy but high quality work in a professional manner yet all dealt with on a personable level. I can not believe i have only just discovered this local gem! I would not use anyone else from now on.

K. W.

The best garage ever, they guys always look after me. They are very trustworthy and the best.

m. f.

This the first review I've ever written, but felt compelled to do one as the service was so good. I've used these guys a few times now and have always been impressed by their service. Not only do they do a good job, they are a pleasure to deal with and don't charge you the earth.

C. M.

Lovely bunch of guys who gave me their honest opinion and called me before they started work on my car with the price, so there was no nasty surprises. Very efficient definitely are now the mechanics I will be using.

D. M.

Eight years ago I moved to Stoke Newington and needed a couple of new tyres and Defoe tyres came highly recommended by some local friends. My experience then was excellent and still is to this day. I now go there not just for tyres , but MOTs and servicing because I have been so pleased with the friendly and great service I get. I have never been able to beat any prices quoted even after searching when a big job is required (cam belt change for example). I happily recommend them to anyone who needs a local mechanic.

J. C.

Easily the best garage in North East London. They’re there to help you not to rip you off like others. Professional services. You’ll get advice or options before you’ll have the job done. Highly recommended.

A. M.

Excellent service. Professional, fast and knowledgeable. My car is quite old, and the guys at Defoe made sure to check with me before undertaking any costly work. Highly recommend.

S. N.

A tyre on my car had a screw sticking in it, in a groove. They took off the wheel and removed the screw, the tyre was not punctured. They put the wheel back on- No charge at all! Honest and generous service much appreciated. I will be a loyal client.

T. G.

Faced with a long Christmas drive north I was concerned that one of my tyres was losing air. My usual tyre place shut early so I tried Defoe Tyres. They saw me immediately and without any fuss diagnosed and fixed the issue. The mechanic was courteous and helpful and charged me what I thought was a very reasonable amount, which I was happy to pay for peace of mind. I’ll definitely go here in future, even though it’s further from my home than my usual garage.

P. S.

I've used Defoe Tyres occasionally for the last few years - mostly for tyre replacement, wheel balancing, etc. I've always found them to be a helpful, skilled, fast and reasonably priced local garage. Today, though (2 days before Xmas), I was absolutely amazed at the level of service that Erol and his crew provided. In Devon a couple of days before, in the dark with heavy rain, I was caught out by what I thought was a normal slip road off the A30 dual carriageway on Dartmoor - that turned out to be a sudden tight right angle bend with no warning. I hit a kerb denting and splitting a front alloy wheel. Next day - with no proper spare and various Xmas/NY trips planned I phoned Defoe on the off chance they could help. My car is an elderly (but reliable) V reg V70 Volvo so the chances of getting a 2nd hand wheel at short notice over Xmas are pretty slim. Erol said they'd be closed for Xmas/NY - but send a photo of the wheel and leave it with him - and if I got back to London ok to call in next morning as they'd be at the garage doing a bit of repainting. The skinny 'emergency' spare wheel amazingly lasted 200 miles back from Devon and I called in this morning. Not only had Erol contacted his wheel supplier but he had found a correct and matching 2nd hand wheel, collected it and had it there waiting. 30 minutes later a new tyre fitted, balanced - and the wheel bolted on the car and the whole problem solved - for an affordable amount. So - THANK YOU Erol and Defoe Tyres. You said I was "lucky" but it was fantastic and thoughtful service and went way beyond what I expected. Exceptional! Happy Christmas - and good business in 2019. You deserve it!

K. L.

They found the problem with my leaking tyre and fixed it with ease. Friendly and good service as well.

b. v.

I've been here a few times now and I will definitely continue to go back. The guys at Defoe tires couldn't be more helpful or efficient. They're also a lot cheaper than anywhere else I've used.

s. V.

No1 at looking after whatever car I have. Never overcharge or take the piss because I'm a female. Errol and the team are the best. Honest and reliable service.

G. H.

Really helpful people. Had damaged wheel and they found replacement at very good price and quality. Fast fit and fair pricing.

Unfortunately I failed to notice that my MOT was due in a week but Defoe Tyres managed to fit me in and do a fantastic job. I was told what needed to be done and given options on parts needed and my car was ready when they said it would be and it didn't cost the earth. Errol and his team of mechanics did a top notch job and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to anyone
