Horsepower is the one for me
I have been going to Horsepower dating 2011 and I have continued to deal with them all these years because of my trust of them that is why I have given them this score thank you very much
My trust for them
PS on reflection I think I have been going to Horsepower before 2011
About 2006 when i drove a SLK Sharen a friend at work had recommended Horsepower to me then and they had started to look after my car so it is almost 20 years now thank you

Land Rover Freelander 2 HSE
The transaction with Horsepower was relatively straightforward with an opportunity to see and test drive the car and inspect it before committing to purchase. This car was sold as a 'Part exchange to clear' vehicle leaving the obligation on a prospective purchaser to view and assess the vehicle,sold without 'any major mechanical or electrical defects'. Since purchase it has covered some 500 miles and various small cosmetic defects consequent upon age have been remedied. I hope it will serve us well. I would not recommend purchasing a vehicle in this way without some mechanical experience or independent inspection particularly as a rather racey overview of the limited service history was provided together with an MOT dated 20.06.2025 with some advisories which had not been attended to. Also Horsepower were unable to make any arrangement for delivery or offer transport from the local train station for collection. Nevertheless customer service was polite at all times.

Hi Victor,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review. We are pleased to hear you found the transaction straightforward and that you were given the opportunity to test drive and inspect the Freelander 2 before committing.
As you rightly point out, this vehicle was clearly advertised as a part exchange to clear, meaning it was sold at a lower price and on the basis that the buyer inspects and assesses the car for themselves. We always recommend that customers looking at older or higher mileage vehicles consider an independent inspection if they are unsure, and we are glad you were able to make an informed choice.
We note your comments about the MOT advisories and service history. These were disclosed at the point of sale and priced into the deal, but we will take your feedback on board about how they are presented in future.
We are sorry we could not assist with transport or delivery on this occasion, although we are pleased you found our team polite and helpful throughout.
We hope the Freelander continues to serve you well and thank you again for your fair and constructive review.
From all the team @ Horsepower 😊
79 Days for Repair & Unsafe Courtesy Car
I am writing this review to warn potential customers that Horsepower Motor Centre knowingly sold me a faulty car due to cost cutting by not replacing the timing chain and tensioner when they fitted a new cylinder head.
Here is the crucial fact: At the point of sale, the salesperson Jason explicitly told me the white Mini Cooper needed a replacement cylinder head, claiming the original had been "poached for another mini that was sold." I was quite happy that they were fitting a new cylinder head as the car had done 72000 miles, so having a top end engine rebuilt was attractive from a reliability prospective.
I collected the car with its new cylinder head 2 weeks later. Unfortunately and annoyingly, 1500 miles later, it suffered a catastrophic failure, failing to start one morning and was returned via my RAC account.
The car then sat at their garage for 40 days before they diagnosed what was wrong with it.
It then took over 79 days while they still failed to repair it. The experience was a nightmare: • They also changed their story when I got the finance company involved. claiming the head was "faulty from the start."
After 3 weeks while the car sat doing nothing, I asked for a courtesy car because I wanted to support them all the way rather than working against them. The courtesy car they provided was not road worthy with a non-functioning headlight and sidelight—a police officer pulled me over and told me to get it fixed urgently. I emailed them about the issue and it fell on deaf ears and I got no response. The A/C on the 2010 Honda Jazz also didn’t work, which I asked to exchange the car for another one.
The problem with the car was clearly caused by their because putting the new head on the car they cut corners by not replacing the timing chain and tensioner. 1500 miles later the chain jump a cog and sent the timing out bending two valves.
Still trying to work with them while they didn’t replace it or fix the Honda’s lights. They eventually replaced the valves on the Mini and put the head back on, only for it to start leaking water. This meant that the cylinder head needed to be removed again and be sent away to be skimmed.
I gave them a final ultimatum to give me a legal courtesy car or I would reject the vehicle which I was legally able to do.
In the end, after losing total confidence in their ability to help me, I handed the car back. They provided only a partial refund and even deducted an extortionate admin fee.
DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY WITH YOUR MONEY. I strongly advise against it

Hi Eric,
We're sorry that things ended this way, but we do want to clarify a few important points for anyone reading.
First, the car in question was sold with a brand-new cylinder head, which you were made aware of at the time and was a major preventative repair that cost us over £1,500 (on a £3,500 car).
There were no signs at the time to suggest a timing chain issue, and the vehicle covered significant mileage before your fault developed. When the car was returned to us, we diagnosed the issue and began work, including replacing valves and removing the head again for testing.
We provided you with a courtesy car during this period, entirely free of charge. Although we accept this repair took longer than ideal due to workshop volume and parts supply delays, we remained in contact and shared video updates throughout.
When you later decided to reject the vehicle, we accepted this without resistance.
The refund was processed in line with your finance company’s instructions and included a mileage deduction that was calculated by the lender, not by us.
We genuinely regret that we couldn’t reach a better outcome together, but we’ve acted throughout with transparency and in line with both the law and industry standards.
If you have any further concerns or questions, please do reach out to us and we will do our best to help.
From all the team @ Horsepower :-)

Poor workmanship left my car in an un roadworthy condition.
I had my car serviced and given an Mot at Horsepower Tonbridge. The car failed the Mot due to the two front suspension arms requiring replacement and were duly replaced by the garage. A week later whilst on holiday a loud knocking noise from the front of the car developed. I took the car into a local garage who advised me that the bolts on the nearside front suspension arm were loose where they had not been securely tightened and that there was an oil leak from the sump where the garage that serviced the car had not sealed the bolt to the sump properly.
I took the car back to Horsepower but had to wait day for the leaking sump to be fixed. What should have been 30 minute job took over 2 hours as a new sump plug had not been sourced prior to my second visit.
On my first visit the garage refunded me the bill I had to pay on holiday. I asked for a goodwill payment as my wife and I had been grounded for a day and a morning awaiting my un road worthy car to be put right. I was offered a free Mot the following year which I grudgingly accepted. However after being messed around with the repair to the leaking sump I once again requested some compensation for the disruption to my holiday and the time spent having the work done only to be ignored and left feeling that rather than me being inconvenienced it was me inconveniencing the garage.
I have written two letters to their CEO at different addresses without a reply.
Their HO Email address on the web appears to be invalid.
They are fine when things go right but due to this experience I will not be using the again or recommending their services.

Hi Mr Pavlou,
We're genuinely sorry to read this and disappointed that, despite our efforts to put things right, you're still unhappy. As you’ve mentioned, we replaced both suspension arms during your visit, and when you reported a concern the following week, we took your feedback seriously. We covered your holiday garage bill without hesitation and offered a free MOT as goodwill, which you accepted at the time.
Regarding the sump plug, we acknowledge the delay during your return visit and apologise again for the inconvenience caused. However, the vehicle was inspected, made safe and fully roadworthy, and all follow-up work was completed without charge.
We did reply to your initial letter in person at the time of your visits, and we're sorry to hear you've since struggled to reach us via post. Our contact details are up to date on our website, and we’re happy to speak further if needed.
We always aim to be fair, even when things don't go perfectly. We're grateful for your past custom and wish you the very best going forward.

So what about the fact your mechanic see it came up on his computer stating turbo boosters leak why have u got him to clear it and not fix it

Hi James,
This is now your second 1-star review in a week and the first time you’ve mentioned anything about a “turbo booster leak”, which (let’s be honest) sounds more like something from a SpaceX launch than a 160,000-mile Ford Galaxy.
To recap: you bought the car back in April for just over £3,000. Since then, we’ve already:
Replaced the front wheel bearing
Fitted a brand new ABS sensor
Road tested the car thoroughly
Found no turbo-related fault codes or warnings at any stage
When we last saw the car in early June, you’d already driven over 4,000 miles and we’ve had no contact since. The timing of this second review (just after we replied factually to your first one) feels less about unresolved issues and more about not liking the response.
We're still willing to help, but new issues now need to be logged with your warranty provider, and we’ll need a claim number before booking it back in. That’s always been the process, and it’s fair for everyone.
From all the team @ Horsepower 😊
