Gary took one look at my car and instantly knew what the problem was. He took the time to explain the issue in understandable terms, he then rectified the issue. My car drives as it was ment to again. Gave me great advice to prolong the life of my engine, i would highly recommend hill fort garage customs ?Services: Auto engine diagnostic

I was buying a classic car in the area that unfortunately broke down during the test drive.Gary pulled over to offer assistance and then informed us about his garage if we needed anything.What started with a simple offer of help became a whole evening of Gary working on this vehicle and being a fantastic host he proved himself to be an amazing mechanic.Quickly fitting parts and rectifying issues I wouldn't hesitate to take any of my vehicles to Gary and hillfort customs.Truly one of last old school mechanics I could not of been more impressed or thankful for everything he did.Don't miss out on using a proper locally owned garage, and supporting an independent business.

Gary is the man! I don't think I have ever met more professional mechanic than Gary himself. The dedication and passion towards his job is absolutely astonishing. Not the best at making coffee but boy he's good at fixing cars or modifying Saab's!Highly recommended!Services: Electrical

Had a problem with my car bonnet not opening which was very frustrating and stressful. I went to see Gary based on a recommendation and although I had made no upfront appointment Gary got straight to work and within the hour had sorted out everything, what a guy he loves a challenge and I would recommend Gary to everyone, complete professional, great guy and really helpful 5 star service

I recently bought a vauxhall vivaro took it straight round to Gary at hillfort garage, he kindly looked over the van for me and advised me on a couple of jobs that needed sorting one was a Cambelt kit water pump and auxiliary belt tensioner and a top mount all of which could of killed my engine had he not picked up on the noises and faults Gary got this job done for me very quickly and at a really fair price. A week later I noticed my clutch was juddering and horrible gear changing. Gary quickly diagnosed it as being a clutch fault and even tho he had a massive workload he got on it the very next day, fitted a new clutch kit, new gearbox oil as he was already in the region he even fitted a radiator I bought for free.. yes for free and rather than charge me again for a service as he could he did it wile he was there only charging me for parts not labour. I know this is s long review but I just have to say this guy does such a great job and cares about his customers. He even worked till 7.30 on a Sunday just so I had the van back for workServices: Electrical repair

Have to say I cannot rate Gary's service, pricing and quality of work any higher. Had a failed clutch on Saturday, and was referred to Gary by a mate. Gary took on the job, and had a look first thing Monday. Though I had a used clutch that could have gone in there, Gary gave me an honest assessment of that clutch and a recommendation to rather fit a new one, even though he would make no more money by fitting a new clutch as oppose to the used one I had at hand (in fact my car would take up a spot loner having to wait for a new clutch, so in effect he could be losing money by having a car sat there not being worked on). I arranged to get a clutch to deliver to him first thing Tuesday (quicker to get one myself) while Gary got everything ready to receive the new clutch. Was happily surprised to see that he'd covered all my paint work with some protective plastic to protect against any scratches - something that VERY FEW garages seem to bother doing anymore. He got the clutch fitted quickly and got everything back together and all worked great again. Price for labour was also very reasonable, so definitely recommend Gary and Hillfort Garage Customs.Service: Transmission

Highly recommended to all!!! Simply wouldn't take my car anywhere else now, I've previously taken my car to different garages and ive been charged for work that didn't even need doing or wasn't even done... so I've now vowed to only use this garage who doesn't rip you off he is honest and what he doesn't know about cars you could fit on the back of a postage stamp. From a simple service to electrics and engine rebuilds. Friendly and reliable service every time!
