Huge shoutout to the team for the outstanding work on my Mercedes EQC. Special thanks to Chris and Paul. I already knew they were exceptional with petrol vehicles, but seeing their expertise extend seamlessly into EVs was seriously impressive. The level of knowledge, precision, and care they brought to the job was next-level. It’s clear they’ve not just adapted to electric vehicles, they’ve mastered them. Brilliant service from start to finish. Highly recommend and we will be back :-)

After 20 years at the same service centre, I gave Total Auto a try. The difference was amazing. I hadn’t realised the number of required servicing items that my old service provider had not done. I recommend Total Auto to always complete the servicing requirements of your vehicle as per the vehicle specifications.
