I has not used MBS before, and as the BMW specialist near Exeter couldn't fit me in at such short notice, the recovery driver suggested that he could contact MBS as he knew them and recommended them highly.
After a quick call, to my delight he said that they could fit me in the next day!
I am a car enthusiast and I am very nervous about taking my pride and joy to a new garage that I have no experience with. After my first conversation with them, my worries had gone and they filled me with confidence. They were extremely knowledgeable friendly and understanding.
I explained the history behind the car, and they explained the fault found and the realistic options they had to repair it, along with a worst and best case scenario, including prices.
This was not an expected breakdown and it was just before Christmas, so not financially ideal.. MBS managed to repair the suspension by using the skills of their technician rather than simply bolting on new parts and costing me more. Ideal.
They also put the car through its MOT while it was with them. It did fail on a few things, being a 20 year old performance car this was to be expected. They updated me at every stage and got the old girl upto a much better standard.
The car has never driven better since being with them. I am extremely impressed with their work and whole attitude.
Some main dealers and specialists can be rather dismissive and seem to treat their customers like robots, with no actual care or understanding. MBS really did come across different, a joy to deal with. Not at all judgemental. When I collected the car, they asked if I'd like to speak with the technician who worked on the car. This was a nice touch, he explained everything in layman's terms and really seemed to know his stuff. I could ask him about the cars condition in general and it was nice for them to give you that time and this added to the personal touch.
If you're like me and you treat your car with care and are looking for a safe, honest and knowledgeable German car specialist to look after your pride and joy, then give these guys a try. Best garage that I have used, without question. I hate feeling like I'm being billed for work that wasn't required, or that they're simply not going to look after my car and understand how much it means to me. This garage didn't make me feel any of these things.
They aren't exactly 'cheap' but nowhere near main dealer prices, and I genuinely believe these guys are far better, especially on the older cars. I'd rather pay for the quality, rather than chance it with another garage without this level of specialist knowledge.
Great work MBS, thank you for the work in my M5 and I'll be singing your praises to anyone looking for a great, German car specialist.
The waiting room has fast WiFi, a TV, coffee machine and comfortable armchairs. You won't want to leave!
Thanks to the team at MBS - I shall certainly be back when it's time for my next service item.
Well done M.B.S.!
