all i can say is WATCHDOG. mr clutch, nationwide autocentre and quickfit were all featured on watchdog a few years ago, and of the 3 mr clutch was deemed the worst (with quickfit a close second). all 3 were caught on film telling porkies and bodging jobs. as they said on watchdog the whole motor trade is plauged with this type of behaviour but it seems the larger chains are the worst.
as i've said a million times build up a relationship with your local garages, then when you need something doing it will get done quickly cheaply and right first time. clutch fitting will cost £100 at a small independant garage. you dont pay until you're happy with the test drive. i'd rather get the bus than let somewhere like mr clutch touch my car.
the last time i went to a big chain was in 1999, quickfit screwed me good and proper. i only went because my engine dropped out round the corner from quickfit and recovery costs were going to be huge to get it home (£190). promised myself that was the last time i'd let it happen. places like that are comparable to halfords. you deserve better service, you deserve to save money, so why wont people go elsewhere and we can put these gibbons out of business.
