Mitchell was great from start to finish, turned up to the first review within just a couple hours of me booking only to find that the car was in bad working order. After I asked him to review another car me in the same day this was also done within just a couple of hours. Furthermore he replied to all my questions and jumped on several calls with me to explain all his feedback on the car reviewed. Thanks Mitchell!
