Went to Phil for a MOT and service on my car and the service was great. The staff were honest and polite, I can definitely say that I will be returning in the future, would highly recommend these guys.

A. H.

Quick and friendly service, had a slow puncture. Did a great job and i will definitely come back for other services!

B. W.

Absolutely brilliant garage! Only went there yesterday and have already recommend to a friend. Very friendly people there got my car fixed the same day I rang them and at a very reasonable price! Great garage all round.

Recommended by my son to take my Shogun to Amalgamated tyres recently to have a glowplug issue sorted. They sorted out the problem. 4 new glowplugs later. Perfect. Good advice without all the big garage fluff. Very Reasonable pricing too. Would recommend. Thank you. Steve Robinson. Northampton.

I can vouch for and recommend Kars Garage. Phil and his team are trust-worthy, able to accommodate at short-notice, and offer fair and reasonable labour charges. Here's why I can recommend them: My MOT recently failed on an ageing 2005 Vauxhall Astra, I asked the garage who conducted the MOT to give me a list of repairs I needed to do, and then I went to two separate garages to get their opinion to see if the repairs the first garage recommended were indeed justified. Once I was comfortable that I wasn't being hood-winked by the MOT testing garage, I opted to buy all of the replacement hardware myself from Euro Car Parts and wanted to pay a garage only the labour fees to replace the affected items on my car. I had a large swatch of items to replace and a short amount of time to do it under (three days), I needed the following done: * Replace full power steering rack * Replace both rear coil springs * Replace both rear shock absorbers/dampeners * Replace front brake discs * Replace front brake pads * Drain engine oil * Replace oil filter * Replace engine oil with the engine oil I provided (Castrol 5W-30 C3) * Wheel realignment (as power steering rack was replaced) After calling a few garages in Northampton to see which ones had the correct lifting equipment to do a full power steering rack replacement, as well as competitive labour pricing and available time-slots, I settled on Kars Garage. I opted for them due to their available schedule, as well as the previous customer-care experience I received from their sister-company (Amalgamated Tyres). When I called Kars, a staff member called "Phil" picked up -- who I think is main manager/owner of the business. He gave me an immediate time-slot on the day of my call, I brought in my car along with all of the replacement hardware from Euro Car Parts and we went through the job-list. Phil was happy with my requests and didn't seem to be annoyed that I wanted to do supply my own parts (some other garages were!) Phil broke down how much time each item took to replace (labour time), and how much they charged (labour cost). I compared this information with pricing I received from two other garages (National Tyres and Under The Bonnet), and it fell within the same pricing and time ranges they provided. Phil and his team finished working on my car by the end of second day, and respected my request to see all old removed parts (so I can inspect them for wear-tear/damages). Phil's team also packed my old power steering rack in the back of my car, which allowed me to take it to the Northampton branch of Euro Car Parts to get my surcharge fee waived (Euro Car Parts provides a partial refund if you bring your old steering rack to them). Once I left Kars Garage, I checked the oil dip-stick levels/colouring to see if they replaced the oil (they did), I then went to National Tyres garage, and paid one of their staff £5 to lift up my car on their ramps and help me validate that the oil filter, coil springs, shock absorbers, brake discs and brake pads were all replaced. We were able to verify Kars did all the tasks I paid for. On my MOT re-test at IN'n'OUT (Kettering road), I also asked their garage staff to double-confirm all hardware replacements were indeed done (they were and matched everything that National Tyres told me). I therefore wholeheartedly recommend Kars Garage! Phil and his team are trust-worthy, able to accommodate my urgent repair needs, and offered fair and reasonable labour charges. I cannot ask for more than that!

A good no nonsense garage. Skilled staff won't mess you around and won't try to feed you lines, what they tell you is what you need doing and nothing more. Great prices that are fair and with a high quality of work that goes with. Not just for tyres!! Service and repairs all equally well done in there spacious and well fitted garage. I've had many jobs done by them on several vehicles and always been happy with the results. Highly recommended.

C. B.

This is a friendly, straightforward garage who do a very good job at very good prices. I have used them on a number of occasions and very much like their reliability and honesty (eg a small job last week for which they charged just £20 - when some other places might have tried to get away with a lot more.... And other times they have proved themselves similarly good). I am very happy to recommend them.....

My alternator packed up on Sunday night. Contacted Paul at Kars on Monday. Very professional, friendly and communication was great. By COB Tuesday, my car was repaired and back with me. I would highly recommend them and will definitely be using them for any future car work I need.

J. K.

Excellent service. From the minute I arrived the service was above and beyond. Phil made sure the children were safe and entertained in the reception area and gave a clear and reasonable quote for the work needed. He even collected my car, repaired it on the day and returned it. Really good garage. Thank you.

K. O.

Took my car in to have the front brakes and two tyres replaced. I think it's fair to say that the bloke on the service reception isn't a morning person, but he'd cheered up considerably when I went to collect. They did exactly what I expected, no surprises or extras and reasonable prices. The car was ready quicker than expected too, which was a bonus. No complaints and would use them again.

C. D.

Been very helpful especially Phil and Jeff and you’re tyre man had a lot of work done by these guys and any problems they sort out good company and highly recommended Craig downing

E. M.

Took my car here for the first time in 2018. Found them very friendly, didn't condescend whilst speaking to you and very good in their overall communication and listening skills. Had problems with the car brakes and they sorted them out in no time. No gimmicks, but a simple choice of basic or full service. Have had my car in for various things ever since, as they are still easy to deal and still very friendly. Definitely recommend them.

Note: I have not been here since James, the person who would do my tyres left suddenly after around mid March 2020. My previous review for when he was there was: Discovered this place via google maps and decided to visit after reading the many and all positive reviews. I wanted to swap summer tyres for winters and I was looking for a good fitter whom I can visit twice a year. I was hence looking for an independent type garage where I can schedule a time with the person actually fitting my tyres rather than use the various tyre chains where the person speaking to you isn't the one doing the job and then all the headache of trying to get a time slot - and even then sometimes having to wait for ages. When I reached here I was attended to immediately, the job done well, my innumerable questions answered and all directly with the person who was actually doing the work. Perfect.

Great service provided by the team. My car failed its MOT and they provided me with a selection of options, backed up with a very competitive quote for the work to be carried out by them. Phil kept me informed at every stage and I had confidence in his knowledge & experience (bear mind I have an automotive engineering degree). At the end the car was ready on the same day and he shared his honest opinion about the vehicle (I asked him to do a thorough inspection as I recently bought the car). I can totally recommend Kars and will be using them again in the future.

J. W.

Excellent service at my recent and first visit. Very polite and professional team, can see all working together in a good, positive atmosphere. Will recommend them without a doubt.

I needed welding on my sons aged car and my usual garage was unable to do this. Kars garage was recommended as the car had failed its MOT. The service was fantastic, quick and very professional, needless to say they now have my custom. Thanks Kars

D. B.

Rang the garage today, slow leak on my tyre. Driving down to Torquay tomorrow. They were able to fit me in at 11:30am despite having a lot of jobs to do. There was a big queue of cars for them fix when i got there but the fitted me in at the time they said. Liam took the car in and repair was possible so he saved alot of cost on having to replace tyres, Very pleased. Cant recommend this garage highly enough. Thank you Liam.

We have been using Kars for 5 years now, we use them for servicing and repairs to our fleet of vans and cars. There is never a problem that is too big or small, from checking batteries and changing tyres to sorting out MOT's and replacing a clutch. I can highly reccomend them and wouldnt go anywhere else.
