The staff at Shakilys are truly exceptional, consistently exceeding expectations. We rely on them for all our company vans, and they never fail to impress. It's frustrating to be without a car, but when you're running a business that relies on a fleet of vans, a breakdown can have a significant impact.
However, Shakilys demonstrated their exceptional service again today. They assessed the van, ordered the necessary parts, and had it fixed and back to us within an astonishing 24 hours! It's a truly remarkable achievement. We would like to extend our huge gratitude to Rob and the entire team.

I've been taking my cars here for around 5 years from MOTs to specialist work on my more classic/unusual cars.
I've always recommended Shaikly's to friends and family and the latest service I had from them surpassed the lot.
Took my partner's car (2015 Vauxhall Adam) in for a service and to diagnose an engine light activation.
Never have I experienced a more honest, open and informative service from a garage, sadly it is looking like our best option is to move the car on and buy new, however where many another garage would have relished the opportunity to charge multiple diagnosis fees or even reccomend expensive diagnosis work (in this case an engine strip down), Shaikly's advised, at no cost, what the cost would be and advised against.
Totally respectful garage, clean, knowledgeable and even if I moved away from the area I would still trust them wholeheartedly with my cars.
Communication from Rob was above and beyond what would normally be expected, and as ever I felt that the concern was the customer and the car being safe/perfect, rather than the profits made. This is the way to run a business and keep customers.
Thanks all, much appreciated.
