Replaced a stop start battery for me . Good price, nice guy, what else could you ask for? I also got some other bits - everything reasonably priced. Great for general sundries. The door is at the side where the mill is/was.

I needed a bosch battery for my wifes car they ordered it and it was delivered to them in an hour for me to collect, excellent service and price again. Definitely the only place to go for car parts, they have always gone out of their way to give honest advice and help to the customer.

I passed my test not long ago so I visited the Ashton Car Shop in which I was recommended to purchase my first car from. On Tuesday 3rd May, after viewing the car in manual, I placed down a £100 deposit for the car in automatic along with another £100 for the car to travel from the Bristol store to Manchester store. A colleague from the Ashton store confirmed with us on Friday 6th May of our appointment to view/collect the car on Saturday 7th May 11am. Come to Saturday morning, we come to view the car after my partner booking time off work and paying for transport to get us there. Upon arrival, we was then told that the car wasn't available. Apparently the car had a 'power cut out'  on Thursday 5th May when it made its travel from Bristol on the motorway. First question is, why wasn't we told this immediately on the Thursday as a paying customer? And why has somebody confirmed with us on Friday of our appointment? We was then turned away and told to wait for an update further that day. Twice over the weekend I had to chase this myself after no one updated me! I rang the Bristol store yesterday on Monday 9th May, where they told me there was smoke coming out the car engine, rattling noises were made and a serious engine fault. Still on Tuesday 10th May after now chasing this everyday has no one got any updates for me whatsoever, best thing is the Ashton store has no clue what's wrong with the car apparently and are saying its still under testing!!!  Not even the same information the Bristol store has, they actually don't know where that information has come from? Still I have not been refunded my deposit nor my travel money to get the car from Bristol (£200 in total). They actually have a cheek as  company to ask if I want to look at any other cars with them... I am a 20 year old young woman with not all the money in the world, who has took the trust of a company with the experience of my first car and have had nothing but troubles with them. I have had to cancel my insurance that has initially cost me £400 upfront, along with the fees I have payed the company for the car itself. The level of customer service has been absolutley disgusting and what they have done is morally wrong. It has stressed me out to a level I couldn't even imagine with the financial loss I have experienced. I have received no contact from managers, apparently they haven't been in since Saturday.... conveniently! I will next be going through ambasment and my bank which no customer should ever have to go through. Will never ever reccomend this company with the position they have poorly put me in!
