UK public names top 50 garages

Published: 08 March 2010

Caravanners will be given a helping hand when it comes to choosing a reliable garage, thanks to the results of a nationwide vote.

More than 4,000 drivers got in touch with Motor Codes to register their votes, with the top five in ten regions now battling it out to be named the best workshop in the country.

Among the contenders for the title are Autosafe Clifton in York, Polar Ford in Stockport and Cambridge's Cowley Road Garage.

Panel judge and TV presenter, Vicki Butler-Henderson, commented: "Going to a garage can understandably be quite daunting for both men and women.

"You practically have to be a mechanic yourself to spot when you're being ripped off by a dishonest garage."

She added that thanks to this latest survey, people can be confident that they are going to a reputable company when it comes to getting their car serviced.

Motor Codes recently revealed that 14 million people feel they have been short-changed by their local garage.
