CUSTOMERS TESTIMONIALS FOR BRAKE STATION

Read below the feedback that our customers have left us since we first opened in September 2012 (Motor Codes, Google & Facebook)

Nigel H (Mar 2021 - Bretton) - Very friendly and nice to find a reliable garage nowadays I will be back

Pete M (Mst 2021 - Bretton) - Wouldn't use anywhere else and we have lots of other 'local' options!.. but we'd rather travel the 50 miles to know we're in good hands!

Ross S (Oct 2020 - Fengate) - First class service! When our van suffered a snapped spring on the front suspension, they pulled out all the stops to get us back on the road quickly. They worked seamlessly with a recovery company that we used to get our van back from St Neots to Peterborough and the van has now been fully repaired and is back on the road within 24 hours of the original issue occurring! Thanks Brake Station for your outstanding commitment to excellent customer service and always providing an honest appraisal of any work that is required on our vehicles!

Trudy S (Sep 2020 - Bretton) - First time of having a MOT done here and very happy with the service I received. Will use them again...

Rosanna S (Sep 2020) - First class service ..great prices and great customer communication ..won't take my car anywhere else

Benjamin F (Sep 2020 - Fengate) - Always honest, accurate information, especially from Miguel. I've been coming here for a few years and not once have I been taken for a ride, nor have I seen any dishonesty from the staff. The garage does professional, quality work and have always been able to assist with my issues, even without assessing the car in-person - excellent knowledge by the staff. This also applies to the other Brake Station. This is the only garage I suggest to my family and friends and they receive the exact same treatment as myself.

Tyler C (Sep 2020 - Bretton) - Very friendly and helpful staff, always honest about the situation with my vehicle. Explained everything in a simple way to help me understand where possible. Excellent service, thank you!

Alysha K (Aug 2020 - Fengate) - I recently had my MOT completed and as always exceptional service from all staff.

Zoe L (Jul 2020 - Fengate) - Excellent honest service, I always use brake station and would definately recommend them as it's a company I can put my trust in and have done for many years.

Alex W (Feb 2020 - Fengate) - Rare to find a no nonsense garage who will clearly and quickly present you with just the facts. Customer service was friendly too and good communication. Ended up not getting any work done - purely some investigation and this was no problem. I didn't feel like I was being pressured into work I didn't need. Would not hesitate to take my car back when I need to.

Keith (Dec 2019 - Bretton) - Brake Station is an excellent garage.They are always honest and up_front.What they quote is what you pay.There are no nasty surprises.I would recommend them highly.

Linda (May 2019 - Fengate) - Just picked up my car from the Fengate branch. Fantastic service, good price and nice not to be treated as a woman who knows nothing. Spoke to one of the techs who explained everything and even showed me the problem. Thank you guys for keeping a single mum on the road 5 stars :-)

Lisa (Feb 2019 - Bretton) - Brilliant service. Had my m.o.t done and there was repairs required. The guy behind the desk explained all to me so i could understand. The work was all done and re tested same day. Highly recommend. Thank you brake station for the great service.

Kim (Jan 2019 - Bretton) - So glad I found Brake Station Bretton. I have taken my car there a few times now and each time, guys have been great! So polite! They managed to find out each time what the problem was my car and fixed it, no hanging around and their prices are excellent too! I will totally recommend this garage 100% If you are looking for a trustworthy garage, these are the guys to visit!

Jacob (Jan 2019 - Fengate) - Used now for two years on my BMW - Great service every time. Quick and easy and the guys are all super honest. Both sites are worth booking your car into. I wouldn't use anyone else in Peterborough.

Shane (May 2018) - Wow. I have had problems with steering drifting to the left, on my Passat, for a while. Had the wheels tracked by other garages on numerous occasions with their Hi-Tech equipment and the problem was still there. Jordan @ Brake Station took this as a challenge and when i got the car back, the problem was gone. Drives perfectly straight and quiet now.
Also a bad wheel bearing noise from the NSR was proved to be both rear tires badly out of shape, so they replacement them. The bill was cheaper than originally quoted as a result of it not being the bearing.

You have yourself a new loyal customer. Great job guys....

Dave (April 2018) - Gave me a jump start when I drained by battery outside Halfords. The Brake Station staff were really helpful and had me on my merry way to work in a few minutes. Thanks guys.
Obviously - I went in to Halfords first - they said they couldn't do it. Maybe it was too difficult for their mechanics!

Ashleigh and Dan (April 2018) - My O/H and I have been taking our cars to Brake Station for about 5 years now. We’ve never had a complaint, and have always been very happy with the work done.
Brake Station, being a small local business, gives a higher quality of service that you don’t get anywhere else. Chris and Miguel are both very friendly, funny and just lovely.
Thank you all for your help over the years!
Ashleigh and Dan

Toby (Mar 2018) - Had my MOT with these guys and they were so helpful and friendly! Were very honest with everything to do with the car and came in at a reasonable price. Will deffo use these chaps again. Been through many garages in Peterborough and these are by far the one of the best.

Alex (Feb 2018) - From the first contact by phone, Break Station suggested the best date for re-MOT not too early but leaving time for fixes if necessary. Reception in the office equally friendly and professional and luckily car passed and I got a text to confirm it was ready for pickup ! McDonalds is Just round the corner and free WiFi, coffee and hash browns make the wait enjoyable ;-) Break Station advised on replacement tyres and gave me clear advice without hustling. For that reason I will take my business to them. A business run how it should, knowledgable, friendly and efficient... don’t go anywhere else !!!

William (Oct 2017) - Simply the best in Peterborough ! I have used Brakestation for the last 5 years, having their excellent Full Service and MOT offer each year. During that time I have got to know Chris and Miguel and I can honestly say that they are the most friendly, trustworthy, reliable and knowledgeable people I have ever met in the motor industry. Both service and price are excellent and above all I trust in the quality of their work and am confident that when they recommend work it really is for my benefit rather than theirs. I rarely leave reviews but these guys are worth it. This is not just a 5 star review but a 5 star review for each of the last 5 years. Keep up the good work !

Stephen (Oct 2017) - I have been using brake station since they opened and they still have the same approach of being open, honest, competitive and quick to sort various car problems out. There isn't another garage that I would describe in those terms, which is why I will continue to use them.

Miss Taylor (Oct 2017) - I have used brake station for about five years. I think of Miguel and Chris very highly. The first time I took my car there, they showed me the damaged part, explained how it was affecting my car and how it would be repaired, and gave me the cost. They explained that had the part, but that I could get it cheaper on eBay and bring it to them, and they would fit it, to help me with costs, if time wasn't a problem. They have fitted me into their schedules at the drop of a hat in emergencies, they even sold me one of their cars when I was desperately trying to find a car to replace the one that I smashed up, for an excellent price. They look after me, as a customer and a person. They never patronise me, (as either a woman or a person who has no interest in cars or mechanics), they give me accurate and understandable information. They are honest (when I said I wanted a particular limited edition classic car they told me I didn't deserve one, given the way I look after my cars!!! True, sadly) friendly and warm. I would never go elsewhere. I absolutely love Brake Station and hope they remain in business until I'm too decrepit to drive any longer. Since they are younger than me, I have no doubt!

Tracey (Sep 2017) - Brake Station is without a doubt the best garage in Peterborough. All the staff are friendly and respectful, to not only men, but also to a woman like myself, and this is something I have found to be an issue in the past, but not at Brake Station. The customer service is to a higher standard above anywhere else I had ever been in the past, I will never go anywhere else now I have been to Brake Station. I have had various jobs undertaken on my car over the years such as; MOT testing, services, new clutch, coolant issues, air conditioning, brake disks and pads changed, under door lighting fitted. Many of these jobs were done by Jordan Stewart who is very approachable and helpful with an excellent knowledge of vehicles, as are all the other members of staff at Brake Station. Any work carried out on your vehicle is completed to an excellent standard and the prices are more than reasonable. You will always be shown any old or broken parts that were replaced from your vehicle, with a full explanation of any job that was undertaken. You can sit in a warm, clean and welcoming seating area while you are waiting for work to be completed, or to collect your vehicle after work has been carried out. I highly recommend Brake Station to everyone and anyone as you will not be disappointed.

Phillip (Aug 2017) - Without a doubt the best service I've received from any garage in 40 years of motoring. They should all be like this.

Stephanie (Jul 2017) - I had a problem with an intermittent abs light which another garage said they'd sorted out but 2 weeks later & another trip to original garage (which couldn't find a fault) I decided to take it to Brake Station. Great service & they sorted the problem out & I discovered the other garage looked like it never touched the sensor. Great work guys

Paul (Jul 2017) - Excellent service. Looked after me superbly for my recent MOT and retest. Sorted out issue with brakes very promptly. Will recommend wholeheartedly to friends and family

Belham Wood (Jul 2017) - We have used Brake Station for 2 Years now for our MOT and servicing etc. Can't fault them. Thanks guys for keeping our Works van and personal cars on the road 5*

Dooley920 (Jun 2017) - I always use this place for their experience, pleasant nature and fair pricing... Give them a go, you won't regret it. Top notch service.

Tony (Jun 2017) - Had my car mot'd and serviced recently - Good advice - good service - fair and honest pricing - can thoroughly recommend

Toby (Jun 2017) - Had my MOT with these guys and they were so helpful and friendly! Were very honest with everything to do with the car and came in at a reasonable price. Will deffo use these chaps again. Been through many garages in Peterborough and these are by far the one of the best.

Benjamin (Jun 2017) - Had a cambelt change and new tyres , for a good price. Easy and polite interaction. Thanks again!

Adam (May 2017) - First things first, I've read the reviews below, and quite frankly the negative ones must be bogus.
I took my Fiesta in for MOT, failed on a couple of points, but the parts and labour were both very reasonable (lower that other local garages) and because they did the work they didn't charge for a retest.
I cannot award more respect to these guys, they are all professionals who do quality work, for very reasonable prices.
I'll be booking my car in here in the future, and considering I live 60 miles away, that should speak volumes.

Thomas (May 2017) - Had an MOT done, was a good price and done within a quick amount of time. Friendly staff at reception.

Paulin (Apr 2017) - Had MOT and other work done last week, fair cost and excellent friendly service. Took car back today for replacement part, once again quick professional. service and only charged for time job took, not full hour. Would recommend to anyone.

Richard (Feb 2017) - Good diagnosis on the phone (sticking calliper is overheating) and confirmed when they looked at the car. It was fixed quickly and the car runs nicely again. Well done, thank you.

Steve (Dec 2016) - I recommend Brake Station to anyone who ever asks me for car issues in Peterborough. Honest, quick and reliable. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else.

William (Nov, 2016) - these guys are great, fast, friendly and honest. I highly recommend them

Elisia (May, 2016) - Love these guys. Always honest about what needs doing, great fix times and great prices. 

Andrew (Mar, 2016) - Found this company online after my previous garage had let me down multiple times. I am very happy I did! The people are very polite and helpful. After my MOT and service (very good price i might add) they explained every advisory, fail and service note in good detail so that a non-mechanic like me could understand. Although they couldn't get my repairs done on one day which was annoying but they managed to book me in for a few days later and got the rest done then. Would recommend anyone to give them a go.

Connor (Nov, 2015) - Always an excellent service and fast turnaround. Friendly, honest and knowledgable guys. Good pricing. This is coming from someone who's very particular about their car also.

Paul (Sep, 2015) - As always, brilliant service from Miguel, Chris and the team. Great value, efficient and honest service - Will be getting all of my servicing done there from now on. Thanks guys - great work!

Ben (May, 2015) - Honest and repaired my car for less than the agreed price I would have happily paid anyway. I've been back again for an MOT and again the service was excellent. Highly recommended. Thanks guys.

Stephen (Jan 29, 2015) - I would recommend the Brake Station without hesitation.

A (Jan 23, 2015) - Brake Station took my car in without appointment and did an excellent job of identifying the damaged parts and giving me options on replacement parts. All in all great service and excellent job done. A friendly & informative service. Would thoroughly recommend them.

Edward (Jul 25, 2014) - I have been using Brake Station for over a year now and they have worked on 3 of my vehicles. The team there are not only very professional, they are friendly, honest and experts in what they do. If you do not understand mechanics, these guys have a good way of explaining the work they have carried out. As for their MOT's, they are cheap, but I do not believe that it is to lure people in to gain extra work. When my Rover failed its test, Brake Station did the best they could to fix it and re MOT it at a competitive price. They even collected and dropped off my car for free! My Mercedes went in today for new tyres and an MOT and again, the level of service was way above expected! Nothing is too much trouble! Not only are Brake Station the best indie garage in Peterborough, the also beat the main dealers and national chains! I would recommend them without hesitation.

Paul (Jul 24, 2014) - I was extremely impressed with the professionalism shown at this garage. Everything was explained to me in detail and if I didn't understand something, they paraphrased it beautifully. The two guys that run this venture, were also up for a bit of banter which kind of restores faith in people. Without a doubt I will be using them again. PS. The service/repair has took 10 years off this car :-)Desmond (Jun 22, 2014) - Communication with customer very good. All my questions were answered fully and was kept informed as work progressed. Very good value for money, and I refer the garage to my friends.

Desmond (Jun 22, 2014) - Communication with customer very good. All my questions were answered fully and was kept informed as work progressed. Very good value for money, and I refer the garage to my friends.

Keith (Jun 22, 2014) - Very good customer care and exceptional service. My car broke down last year a day before I was due to go on a driving holiday. The fault was diagnosed quickly and the parts obtained quickly, bearing in mind the car was not with the garage until late afternoon. The parts were fitted the following morning and I was able to leave by lunchtime as originally planned. Superb service.

Damian (Jun 20, 2014) - Fantastic, kept me informed and showed me the old parts to view the wear. Great job!!!

Dean (Jun 20, 2014) - Fantastic service, very friendly and informative staff and well priced too

Chris (Jun 20, 2014) - The above mentioned vehicle belongs to my partner Mrs Jo Davey of Peterborough. I have taken my Mercedes SLK C15 CJR, my son's two cars (he live in Cambridge)to the above mentioned garage and their service has always been first class. I have promoted their services to my colleagues in my work place in Peterborough and know that my colleagues who have used them have been more than satisfied with the service given.

Zane (Jun 20, 2014) - Can't rate highly enough. Everything very well explained, including talk through replaced parts after service to show condition and reason for replacement. Very reasonable labour rate and minimised where possible. Just an excellent service all round.

Colin (Jun 18, 2014) - The staff were courteous and efficient. The price was good. They booked it in earlier than scheduled so that I could collect at a convenient time for me and they dropped me at work in the morning as I was on a tight timescale. Overall a pleasant experience.

Alastair (Jun 18, 2014) - EXTREMELY GOOD PEOPLE WHO PROVIDE AN EVEN BETTER SERVICE, ALL AT AN UNBEATABLE PRICE!

Carl (Jun 15, 2014) - Half the price of the main dealer. Things explained very well to.

Jackie (Jun 13, 2014) - Everyone at Brake Station were friendly, helpful, very quick and efficient.

Matt (Jun 13, 2014) - Excellent service. Car was booked in at very late notice (day before). Fault was found quickly and I received a call to explain what the fault was and quoted for fixing it. All the work was complete before I finished work.

Darren (Jun 12, 2014) - They managed to fit my car into their schedule at extremely short notice. Carried out repairs at very reasonable rates, keeping the defective parts as evidence of need. Will not use anyone else in the future.

Trevor (Jun 11, 2014) - Very professional ,polite and efficient service, and especially as I had not booked and turned up unexpectedly. Service provided was Aircon re-gas.

Marc (Jun 10, 2014) - Fast friendly and efficient, with good customer care. Took the time to explain and show me the defect parts. Price as quoted. A great overall service.

Mark (Jun 10, 2014) - Very friendly counter staff and mechanics happy to provide advice and solutions.

Mark (Jun 10, 2014) - An excellent service would bend over backwards to help. I have 3 vehicles and all of them go there without hesitation. Highly recommended.

DJ (Apr 04, 2014) - I have been using Brake Station for various work on cars since Chris and Miguel opened the business. Their service and professionalism is top notch and I go there confident that they and their Team will do a great job of whatever work is required.

On two separate occasions now the guys at Brake Station have diagnosed, found and rectified an issue that has proved too hard to fathom for the main dealers. There are two key reasons for this:

Firstly, communication. They actually listen to the customer and seek to understand the problem (without all the usual head scratching, teeth sucking and bewildered blank looks you get at other places).

Secondly, they apply sound logic and engineering judgement to solving problems. And the reason for that is that they are experienced Professional Engineers; Proper ones, not the usual "motor engineers" that you'll be dealing with at most places you could take your car.

It always takes a while to find people that can be trusted to take care of cars in a manner in which you're completely happy and comfortable with. I have repeatedly referred other friends and colleagues to Brake Station, safe in the knowledge that the guys will look after them and I will continue to trust them to look after my cars in the future.

Thanks

Sharan (26 Apr, 2014) - Thank you and your team so much for fitting my car in, at very short notice, and repairing it in a day. I really appreciate it. She’s now driving noise free!!

Matt (Mar 19, 2014) - Chris and Miguel are highly competent professional engineers who have gained subs
