Saffron Walden MOT and Car Servicing

Professional car servicing will keep your vehicle in top working order for many years to come. Our experienced technicians carry out a careful assessment of your car – including its tyres, exhaust, brakes, clutch, steering, suspension and battery – to check their functionality, and will carry out any necessary repairs using the latest technology.

We also carry out MOT tests at our dedicated Saffron Walden branch to check that your vehicle is roadworthy. In the event that it fails its test and requires some repairs, our specialist team can carry these out, too. Should your vehicle need a stay in our garage while repairs are carried out, we can offer you a courtesy car to keep you on the road while we work on your vehicle.

For further information or to book your vehicle in for a service/MOT, simply give us a call today – you will speak directly to one of our experienced technicians, so you won’t need to worry about automated responses when ringing us.

Dean Barrell

Manager of Saffron Walden Branch

Dean’s love of cars started young when he used to mess about with race cars and he still enjoys attending racing events when he has time and getting out and about on his motorbike

Dean has been with Treadfirst nearly 10 years and now that he is Manager of the busy Saffron Walden branch he  enjoys the many interesting challenges that the job brings.

The thing he likes most about Treadfirst is that everyone is treated as an individual but there is a great loyal team working together.

I was unfortunate to fall victim to the potholes of Saffron Walden, Treadfirst were polite, professional and efficient in helping me get my vehicle back in the road with replacement tyres as soon as possible. Fantastic customer service and value for money.
Arrived from a pot hole disaster at 930 worried as left dogs at home thinking 20Minutes to drop off an oap. Chris on the desk pulled someone off a job to get me in and out on my way home 1030!! Brilliant human kindness and understanding. good price and just made my day so grateful thank you!!

They were so friendly when I called with a suspected puncture, fitted me in the next day. Everyone was courteous, they kept to time and repaired the tyre inexpensively. A really positive experience, they will be my first port of call in the future.

Couldn't have been more disappointed with the service. We had several issues working with this company, and only persisted in the hope it was a one off initially. However, after three mis-diagnostics, an over-charge on parts and then incredibly rude service (we had to actually insist on what we thought the problem was - to 4 members of staff - before they finally listened, raised the car and saw that they - the experts - were completely incorrect). If we had not insisted, who knows what 'problem' they would have fixed/not fixed. There was no offer of an apology, compensation, or a solution even! We had the problem fixed immediately, efficiently and extremely professionally in Haverhill in the end. Such a shame.

Fantastic service here! We were visiting the area for a wedding and had the exhaust come loose. We called on a Saturday and 5 minutes later the car was up on the ramp and they were looking at it for us. As we were pushed for time, they were able to do a temporary job, to fix it, then we were able to take it to our garage when we got home.
