This business operates from a large very modern industrial complex and is equipped to handle just about anything you can imagine. I had my car MOT done here and Darren who performed this work is a lovely guy who's very engaging and has a wealth of knowledge with years and years of experience. He also has the the largest array of tools and equipment I've ever seen all neatly stored in his mobile tool chests. The service was prompt, no nonsense and above all honest. Plus very reasonable rates. I will be using this establishment and no other in the future and highly recommend you pay them a visit the next time you need repairs or MOT.

What our customers are saying
It’s hard to find a mechanic you can trust and I think I’ve finally found them! I bought a lemon of a car and on top of that a terrible experience with another garage dealing with it. The team at Drome are always helpful, patient and professional. Their prices are fair and although not the cheapest you do get what you pay for, so for someone like me who has no other option but to drive everyday they are a god send!

Ordered tyres online and confirmed date and time to be fitted. Contacted following day to say tyres ordered were out of stock.

Would recommend.

Lovely gentleman and brilliant service! He saw me within a day, he knew straight away what was wrong with my car, he gave me really good advice and was just really genuine. I often get mechanics trying to “pull the wool over my eyes” or I get that feeling as I’m a young lady and don’t know much about cars but not this mechanic! He was honest and fair and I will definitely be going back to Chris with any other car issues and can’t recommend him enough

I would give Lavi Motors 10 stars if i could,my daughter had a really complex fuel issue with her Mercedes A Class,would just randomly stop on a regular basis,Mercedes wanted silly money just to look at it.after changing a few parts,filters,sensors etc the problem still occurred.after more diagnosis it turned out to be the fuel control module,,again Mercedes wanted silly money for a replacement and to re code it,they would not even tell him where it was located,after much hunting Lavi found it hidden under the back seats,we sourced a 2nd hand one online,Lavi replaced the module,coded it,took the car for a run and now everything seems to be working as it should,EmL gone off as well.i would not hesitate to recommend Lavi Motors to anyone ,,really nice guy,very professional and best of all saved my daughter an absolute fortune in costs compared to if we had taken it to Mercedes.

MOT, interim, full & major car service, tyres, aircon regas, common repairs
What our customers are saying
I was blown away with how nice and professional the owner was. I’m always worried about taking a car (in this case a van) to a garage as I’ve had bad experiences in the past. This was the complete opposite. After calling this garage, I was asked to pop by so he could have a look. Unfortunately my van was to big to fit in he’s shop as it is on the big side, but that didn’t stop him spending a good 20 minutes of he’s time, plunging it in to a machine to find out the problem. He didn’t want any money for he’s time, just wanted to help. He told me what I need to do, which was a great help, as I now knew what to say to a van garage, which I have now sorted out. You don’t find companies like this no more, as it’s all about how much money they can get from each customer. I 100% recommended anyone who has a problem with a car, to take it to this garage. You will definitely be in good honest hands. If the gentleman who I dealt with (who I think he’s the owner) reads this, thank you so much again for your help, I really do appreciate it.
