Had my Fiat 500 recovered from Cornwall back to Shropshire and honestly couldn’t fault the service.

It wasn’t the easiest place to find and the recovery itself was a bit tricky, but they handled it all like pros. Really friendly, knew exactly what they were doing, and made the whole thing feel straightforward.

They got the car back safely, turned up when they said they would, unloaded it without any issues, and that was that, no stress at all.

Would definitely use them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
