Our customer reviews

  • Judi Morgan

    12th January 2026

    Given that I wasn’t local and was a little late to drop my car off as I’d promised, the guys did a fantastic job at fitting me in. They were the friendliest and most efficient garage I’ve come across in a good while. Their communication was first class and the bill was very good value. I’ll definitely be taking my car back to them.

  • Roger C

    Communicative, professional, helpful. I don’t want to be too wordy but after my awful and expenses with the branded dealer… it was wonderful to experience Athersmith’s helpful and explaining professionalism. They solved problems, kept me informed and the experience was great. The main dealer, euch - but Mega thumbs up 👍 for Athersmiths.

    My first time at Athersmith.
    I live in Carnforth and took my car to Athersmith in Ulverston because they had great reviews, and are a high end car specialist.
    Better value than a BMW dealer garage.
    They were very thorough and very friendly.
    I will be using Athersmith for future work on my BMW.

    Excellent service. Drove through a flood recently and since then my car’s been rattling. With a long distance trip coming up I had no choice but to take my car to the nearest garage.
    The team at Athersmith diagnosed the issue so quickly and told me that they will see what can be done - despite how busy they were, they made time to fix my car in under an hour.

    I service my car here for a reason - they are consistently excellent, competent and highly professional. The service: right from the appointment making, is simply a nice experience.

    Even though they were clearly busy, Athersmith assessed the clutch problem with my car within 24h, & within a week was fixed, new clutch etc installed, together with other, planned, service works. Expensive job, but a brief review of alternative providers indicated to me that it wasn't well above normal rates. Professional, knowledgeable & courteous service all round. Will definitely use...

    Until today, I have always used the local Mercedes dealership to service my cars. Last week, surprisingly, Merc decided to close my local facility permanently - just when my CLS needed a service.

    Our camper needed quite a bit of work doing on it, the sort of job where the quote makes you wince a bit though they clearly explained the total bill would depend on the condition of the existing parts once they could inspect them fully. Thankfully, the existing bit didn't need replacing. We're very pleased to have our van back on the road even if we can't afford to put fuel in it anymore ;-)... Read More
