Iverson Tyres

I went in for a quote on tyres and was told that the £39 per tyre included everything. I asked specifically if there would be anything else I would need to pay for and was told no, this included everything. When I took the car back for tyres and MOT, I was then told that I also needed to pay for an alignment on top of the per tyre cost. I dropped the car off at 9am and was told several times that I would be called around noon when the car was finished. I called at 12:30 to check on the car and was told that there were just starting the MOT. When I called back at 3pm, again to check on the progress, they had completed the MOT but still had not put the tyres on. I did not end up getting the car back until 1pm the next day. I actually would not have minded it taking that long if they would have told me that up front. When I complained about the additional alignment charge that I was initially told was included they did give me a small discount, but when I picked up the car the hubcaps were left VERY dirty after the tyre replacement. I will NOT be returning to Iverson Tyres. I found them to be untrustworthy, impatient when I had questions, and didn’t even bother to clean up after themselves.

Don’t know why the other reviewer had such a problem. I have 1989 Renault Campervan and these guys could not have been more helpful or cheap. I knew it needed new exhaust system and break drums changing. They where happy for me to be there and watch etc. Break drums were a real mess, they rebuild them both, new cylinders etc, new bearings etc did a great job. Even fitted replacement exhaust manifold which I got on eBay. I know they did not charge me the full hours it spent to do the work. They gave me a quote and stuck to it. When they quoted for the exhaust it was a little high so I told them what Mr Exhaust had quoted and they matched it. I’m so glad to have finally found a garage I can trust, so they will be getting all my work. Thanks a million.

I don’t trust these guys any more. Yes they’re cheap but that really doesn’t matter when they try and stiff you for repairs you don’t need.
My claims are not unfounded. A few years back I failed an MOT, as I knew I would, due to my exhaust, which resembled a nice Swiss cheese. I was told by these ‘experts’ that the problem was in my catalytic convertor. This I took issue with. Not because the rest of my exhaust had holes in it. Not because this is the most expensive part of the exhaust. But because it had been changed less than a year previously and had been used for less than 2k miles. When I suggested that they change the parts of the exhaust that actually needed doing before jumping to conclusions, they gave me the sort of patter that works on 22-​year-​old women who come in complaining that their car-​car won’t go brrrm and worry that their nail appointment might clash with the car’s pick-​up time. As I made to drive away, they realised that it wasn’t going to work with me, and backtracked. I replied with 2 words, got the exhaust fixed at National, and the car has passed 3 MOTs since then without much more than a bulb change.
My girlfriend also got stung by some rubbish spiel and work they carried out without her say-​so.
So basically my summary would be these guys are cowboys, stay well clear.
