An excellent service provided at this garage. Very professional, good job, no problems and very reasonably priced. Also good looking girl working in the service dept (hehe) and free coffee!

20k Service for fabia
I was able to get a good deal by price matching
and they did a really good service on the car and left me feeling fine I would recommend them

Only used them once, and it was only to buy a single bolt, but they were very helpful and friendly, couldn't really fault them!

First variable service came up at just over 15,000 miles and I had to be in Bath, so used Platinum Skoda, Bath. Very helpful, took be back and collected me, in my own car, rather than let me walk in the pouring rain. (Might have been the sight of me using crutches that did it.) Very pleasant and efficient receptionist.

Car was washed when I got it back - it needed it unfortunately, nice thin coating of mud from very wet country roads.
Didn't get chance to phone around and find out if £230 inc. VAT was reasonable or not.
Would use them again if I was in Bath.

I bought my Fabia vRS from Platinum, and I must say they are most professional, take care of their clients and pay attention to detail. If you are in the South West, annoyed at your more local Skoda dealership and can get to Platinum Skoda, Bath, I recommend you pay them a visit for servicing, repairs, new or used vehicles.

Marc on sales took me through the purchasing, did everything he could and got the package that suited me the best, made sure everything was just right. Very attentive, very approachable, even after I nearly made him hurl on the test drive! Top man!

I popped in for a couple of minor warranty things for my used Furby, and they came out trumps. As soon as I had arrived, the aforementioned pretty girl that works on the service desk had clocked my reg and had the paperwork on the desk, waiting for me. That was after a phone call yesterday and without an appointment. The Manager even offered to touch up the scratch I have in the bonnet whilst their guy is removing a bad scuff mark from the interior plastic trim, rather than me spending the money on a touch up paint! I didn't even ask for that! What better service can you get.

10/10 in my books. If you want to know how to be treated well, go to Platinum.

After some problems, some mutual bad luck perhaps I can conclude they are friendly and want to make sure you are happy.

Just had my car in for some minor warrenty work. This is an excellent garage with courteous, knowledgable and friendly staff.

Work was carried out quickly and with no hassle.

Well worth the travel from Bristol.

Many thanks, will definitely be back again.

Many things went wrong from the first time I used Platinum and still feel a waste of time and money to go there.
radio key lithium battery replaced and paid for but only later on Willis in London a real good battery was replaced and did finally worked what makes me really doubt of Platinum services.
Dodgy situation I spent almost 500 pounds and other place in London simply connected the computer to the car and solved it in front of me..in 5 minutes. the most amazing is they tell me they dont understand what Platinum been doing to the car because there was an error reported by Wag.com that just needed to be deleted and after scanned again there was no error. everything was fine after that..maybe I never had a problem.. Platinum was a nightmare and I will never forget it.
Just talking about it makes me angry.
