What our customers say
Drivers from across Altrincham, Timperley and Sale.
Professional, honest and fast. Everything was explained clearly and they did a great job on the car. Will definitely be back.
Martina S.AltrinchamAnother garage could not work out the fault. AMH diagnosed and fixed it the same day. Impressive technical knowledge, and the price was fair too.
Rebecca H.TimperleySudden headlight issue and Arran sorted it straight away, no fuss. Friendly, honest and efficient, exactly how it should be.

Same day
Sudden headlight failure
Driver turned up without an appointment with a light out. Sorted on the spot, no fuss, back on the road in the same visit.
MOT prep
Pre-MOT check & service
Full service plus a run through the usual MOT failure points, so the test itself was a formality rather than a gamble.
Brakes
Brake pads & discs
Grinding noise on braking. Pads and discs replaced, everything else checked and left alone because it did not need touching.
Air con
Air con re-gas & leak check
Blowing warm ahead of summer. Leak traced, system re-gassed and tested so it actually works when it is needed.
