I took my car to Sopley Garage for an MOT on the 27/03/2023. I was told they was refusing the mot as they said there was a serious oil leak. I took my car to another garage for a second opinion to check this out and take another mot I was told the oil leak was not serious and it passed the only thing I can think is that Sopley Garage was just trying to get more work. I would not recommend this garage and will not be using them again.

Every visit is always a pleasure, waiting area was nice and toasty as i waited and confident in going there as they all know how to help. Always have absolute confidence they'll go through my car thoroughly and professionally highly recommend this garage. Plus side also, is that they do discounts for the army and public services on there mots and services

Only 2 years and 4k miles ago i had my wife car "serviced" at this garage. Front brake pads and discs has been replaced as per their recomendation, so they said. Only yesterday i have realised that my wife was driving on literrary 0 brake pads and my brake discs is ruined by that. Really within 2 years and 4k miles can drive off fresh brake pads? I was suspicious about their services after collection, as engine bay was with spilled oil after oil change (apparently trainee fixed my car). Should have checked pads and discs back then already... 0 trust, suggest to avoid. Paid money for nothing basically.

Experienced some severe issues with using Sopley Garage. Put a car in for an MOT which passed. But on the way home, the car's rear brakes made a scraping noise. The vehicle was parked a few weeks while away. On my return I removed both rear wheels to find NO rear disc brake pads, just the backs... nothing ZILCH! - Not only that, both calliper pistons seals had perished and had come out. These vital life-saving items could conceivably be missed during an MOT inspection. But considering Sopley Garage also did a 'Gold service' only 2,000 miles beforehand, a service that according to Sopley Garages website, includes a 'visual brake inspection' I can only surmise Sopley Garage never visually inspected a damn thing on either occasion, or whomever did needs to go to Specsavers! It would be reckelss and negligent for me to use them again! Services: Oil change, Vehicle safety inspection, Vehicle Inspection, Auto emissions testing
