★★★★★Ringwood MOT
“I was driving to work when I discovered my radiator had blown, I contacted 14 garages, all were too busy. I then contacted forge, where I spoke to Linda, she told me to bring it in anytime. I took my car in at around 12pm, was given a courtesy car so I could go back to work and then was contacted just before 4pm on the same day to be told that my car was fixed and ready for collection. The best service I have ever had in any garage, highly recommend.”

“Five Stars! I highly recommend Forge Auto Centre on Magna Road! I needed to book an MOT at very short notice, and they were incredibly accommodating, fitting my appointment in perfectly right after the school run.The garage itself was exceptionally clean and tidy, and the staff were wonderful—very friendly and professional. I really appreciated their communication, from the helpful text reminder before my appointment to the phone call and text letting me know my car was ready for collection. It is fantastic to have such a reliable, top-quality garage local to me. I will definitely be using them again!”

“thanks to the person who stopped and help me with my van last Wednesday broken down under the Cooper dean flyover in the outside lane going towards the Harvester when everyone else was being stupid and beeping etc. this person gave up his time and managed to clear a fault code on the van so we could push it out the way of impatience drivers! your a star thanks again”
★★★★★Magna MOT
“What a good experience. I just had my car MOT'd, serviced and an electrical repair carried out at Forge Garage. Such a friendly team who are happy in their work. A bright and tidy garage which I thought was a good sign. No one likes garage bills, but it was less than I expected after the repair. I am a very happy customer who will be back. Thank you.”
★★★★★Magna MOT
“I feel that these guys really care. Thought I may have had a problem with my gearbox and not only did the guys take me out for a test drive but they did everything to find what could be done to fix the noise. Eventually there was nothing to be found and they still put lithium grease into the bushing at their expense during a regular service. Scott was an outstanding and excellent representative of the company and honestly I wouldn't take my car anywhere else. Steve is always so happy to see you and help. I was referred by somebody who I already trusted - and he knows mechanical stuff. Hands down, these guys are the best I've used in over 30 years. Worth the switch for sure!”
