Bennett Autos have recently replaced the cam belts on both my Skoda Citigo and VW Up . The service provided was both friendly and excellent on both occasions and their prices were so much more competitive than those offered by the main dealers where you end up paying for all the "glitz and glamour" of the showrooms that you don't want. The job is identical and when you consider that they... Read More
