HI , I am new to the site and looking for any recommendations for this Garage- I have had a chat with Stuart who was extremely helpful for doing lots of work on an accident damaged XC90 and a reamp. Any recommendations greatly appreciated.
Thanks Norrie.

Isn't Kent a bit of a drive from Inverness??

Cheers

Thanks Dave, im buying a damage XC 90 in Kent and thought get it fixed local before I drive back up the road.

OK - Good luck with that Norrie

It's a long way to manage any issues...

Seems like Stuart knows his Onions/Volvos though.

Cheers

Dave

Sorry to bring up an old thread. Is anyone in contact with Stuart at SW Autos? I've been trying to call but all lines are dead and no replies to emails. They've had my 850R for a number of weeks and I need to find out what's going on with it.

Any help much appreciated.

I pass there most days. Next time im that way I'll pop in and ask. I'm in Ashford so only about 20 mins away from me.

I can't make a recommendation about work carried out as they can't even be bothered to show up at their garage. Pre-booked a cam belt replacement for 10:00 am, no one was there, the premises were all locked up, waited until 11:00 am, still no show. As I'm an hour's drive away it was a wasted morning for me along with fuel. I subsequently attempted communication via phone, E-mail & via their Facebook page, couldn't even be bothered to give me the courtesy of a response. That indicates to me how they like to run their business. Therefore it would seem I had a lucky escape. Complete waste of space. BTW on their website it shows a car park full of high-end cars, it's nothing of the sort, it's a dingy clapped out workshop & the car park had an old 850 in the corner in bits that's obviously been there some considerable time due to the moss growing on it & that was it. You have been warned.
