We were stuck in Yorkshire with a broken alternator in my Skoda. Hammerton Cars fitted a new unit at short notice and their price was very competitive. I'd definitely use them again if I was in the area.

Best service, friendly staff, free loan car or they would collect car from home, cheaper than main dealer and they now do tyres.
