How We Have Helped Others Just Like You…
Today I visited Shaiklys for some advice on managing my rather ancient car with strange noises. They were exceptionally kind and helpful, I feel incredibly fortunate to have them as our local garage, we are blessed.
Absolutely brilliant service. So competitive on price with quality to match. Access to all Audi service notes just as if you were at main dealer. Will not bother with Audi now as Shaikly were fantastic. Dan was amazing and so helpful.
Booked in for a battery draining test. Very fair pricing, informative & really good communication. Would definitely use again. Thanks!
I have used Shaikly motor services for over 25 years on many different cars. A great reliable and knowledgeable company that offers great quality service at a reasonable price.
I was especially impressed by the professional yet warm personal service I received from the moment I made the appointment over the phone to when I picked up my car. In a time when genuine customer care is becoming increasingly rare, I truly appreciate your commitment to maintaining such high
Fantastic service from all the staff. Always friendly..the best moter company by far.
