What customers say
Based on genuine customer reviews
Sams Autos London holds a 4.6 rating from 127 reviews. Sam and George are named repeatedly for honest, friendly service and competitive pricing, including bodywork and accident repairs completed at a fraction of main dealer quotes. One long-standing customer described a dispute over workmanship turning confrontational, though this appears to be an isolated account set against a large number of positive, repeat-custom reviews.

They are all smiles and charm itself when they are yet to get your cash, (they have only ever asked me to pay in cash I wonder why?). I have used them for years and like so many of the other commenters have been happy enough. The one time I was not happy with the workmanship on my car and wanted something looked at again that charm was no where to be seen. They turned into aggressive intimidating bullies. The fact that I have been using them for up to 8 years counted for nothing.
I got my M.O.T done here recently and I'm very happy with the service, I would usually go to the bigger garages on the high street and always feel very anxious about the suprises but not here, Sam was very honest and professional so I will be coming here from now on. Highly recommended.
I had my Rocker cover gasket repair for a BMW 3 series done here recently. They were the cheapest out of a few quotes I had gathered. The work was top notch, great communication, very friendly service. They did a few other bits like resetting my service light, changing a brake bulb, and pollen filter i'd provided at no extra charge. Plus I had my MOT done, all for a reasonable and very competitive price. I would highly recommend! George and Sam were great.
Sam was extremely helpful from the moment we called for assistance. He was there throughout the entire process, providing support and reassurance. When he arrived, he was friendly, professional, and quickly identified and resolved the issue. His calm and confident attitude immediately eased our stress he told us not to worry and that he’d take care of everything, and he absolutely did. Sam is an excellent mechanic, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of reliable help.
Excellent Local Autoshop. Recently took my 2015 Mini Cooper Diesel there. George was the person who did the MOT and Service and explained everything very clearly. He is extremely helpful and friendly. These guys are legit, no hidden costs, honest and very reasonably priced. All my works were completely in 1 day. So good I have booked my other vehicle in for its annual service and MOT. Highly recommend! Cheers guys!
What an excellent garage. Sam could not have been more helpful firstly changing all my break pads and then doing an outstanding job on some bodywork. First time using this garage and will continue to use for all my Mercades needs.
Amazing experience and service from Sam. Had a lot of damage to the front my car from an accident and he fixed my car in around 4 days. Very quick !!!! Would definitely recommend and come back in the future for any repairs.
