They have recently serviced and changed the cambelt on my non-turbo import and I was impressed. All done quickly and a fun loan car as well. My father has had Subarus from them as well and never had any problems with their service. I would recommend them, especially having come from using a main dealer for my old car. Incidentally they are also charge less per hour than many mainstream dealers.

I know of a few people who have nothing but bad things to say about David Hendry cars.

If you like an unhelpful and arrogant response to any problems that may arise from the service especially if it involves scratching your car then David Hendry Cars are the company for you.

Richard, hello again. I used them to fit quickshift and do the 54,000mile service. I found them fine though they appeared a bit rushed-but it was a Saturday and they closed at 13.00. Wheels are a pain to keep clean!

Benny, unless you speak from provable experience then I would not make that sort of statement publically. (as this BBS is !!)

For the record I bought my car from DHC, they have serviced and maintained it since, I get good efficient service from a very busy company who don't always have a lot of time to waste.

Labour charge was £38.00 per hour plus vat as of the last visit I made.
