Great Team

What a great team Ian and Dawn are. They changed all 4 spheres on my MG Metro within 3 hours at an excellent cost. The result is a smooth ride again. I can highly recommend them for your Hydrolastic/Hydrogas suspension issues.

Excellent service.

Ian and Dawn phoned ahead to give me an ETA and arrived within 15 minutes of that. They set up and replaced the spheres on my MGF within the timescale given then cleared away and went on to their overnight stop. Excellent service at a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

Excellent all round professional experience

It gives me the greatest of pleasure in writing this review having recently engaged the services provided by Dawn and Ian Kennedy to repair and re-gas my Austin Maxi suspension displacer units.
The whole experience has been excellent with prompt, concise Communication with clear descriptive issues identified during repair and remody of the units and pipelines faults.
The cost of repairs and re-gassing was also very modest end considering the work and skill Involved together with 12 months guarantee on work carried out on the units.
Thank you Dawn and Ian. Your good reputation is truly justified. Keep up the good work

Kind regards Kim Fielding.

First class service

First class service dealing with a Hydrolastic suspension on my Austin 1300. Dawn and Ian are highly recommended to any classic car owner with either Hydrolastic or Hydragas suspension. Prompt, efficient and very knowledgeable. One very happy customer.

Specialist Expertise at a Very Reasonable Price.

The Kennedys' knowledge of Hydrolastic and Hydragas suspension systems is second to none. They know exactly what they are doing, know their way around the cars to which these systems are fitted and are able to recondition Hydragas and Hydrolastic units to fit open an exchange basis.
The mobile service is very convenient, and their prices are very reasonable for a task that requires considerable expertise. And, they're a pleasure to deal with.

Easy to do business with!

Getting in contact is easy, all (stupid) questions answered in a no-nonsense, friendly and efficient way.
Can´t comment on in-person service, I mailordered parts, but all transaction was faultless. Pieces arrived decently packaged and speedily.
HIghly recommended!

Outstanding level of service

The service delivered by Dawn and Ian was exemplary. Arrived on time and within about 2 hours had replaced all spheres on my MGF. The difference is unbelievable just wish I had done it earlier. Very much value for money. Would highly recommend there services as came out to my house and completed the switch on my drive.
