I’ve taken my BMW 335d to Abid Works on several occasions for various jobs, including an engine oil service, gearbox service, brake fluid change, control arm replacement and a few other bits. I can honestly say the quality of work and customer service have been excellent every single time. What stands out the most is how professional, welcoming and accommodating Abid and his team are. I’ve contacted them multiple times, sometimes at short notice, and they’ve always done their best to fit me in. They get straight on with the work, waste no time and keep you informed if any issues or delays come up. Another thing I really appreciate is their attention to detail. During a routine oil service, Abid noticed my control arms were wearing out and advised me to get them replaced. When I eventually decided to get them changed, he even helped me find the correct parts for my car. It’s little things like this that show they genuinely care about the work they do and the customers they look after. It’s not often you find a garage that combines quality workmanship with such good customer service. After several visits, I can confidently say my car is in good hands with Abid and his team. I’ll definitely be returning and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Abid Works to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy garage.

Read all 181 reviews on GoogleBeen coming to Abids for a couple of years now, got recommended to them from a friend of mine as it was his go to place for car modifications. Started going to him just before he moved to his current location and havent gone to any other garages for car work since then, he can pretty much do everything, hes work is top quality that you can leave knowing its a job well done. No job is too small or big. I have since gone to him numerous times for car work, and even warranty work, really treats his customers well and treats your car with respect no matter what it is, fair and honest pricing and where possible will give a cheeky little discount now and then for his loyal customers. Dont trust no one else to touch my car, 💯 always recommend him when people ask me.
Abidworks is the best of the best! I’ve brought my car here multiple times and have only received Immaculate service, no issues at all. Abid and his team go above and beyond to cater for their customers. Not to mention, the very affordable prices compared to other mechanics. I would confidently recommend AbidWorks to anyone!
