R&S Autos Mobile Mechanic in short
R&S Autos Mobile Mechanic works from Overdale across Telford and the wider Wrekin area, offering servicing, diagnostics, DPF and EGR work at your location. Its calling card is a gallery of dozens of captioned past jobs, from brake and timing work to diagnostic rigs, so the standard of work is on show up front. The site also states comprehensive insurance cover for all services, which few rivals put in writing.
Customer reviews sit a notch below the leaders, with four-and-a-half stars on Google the headline. Our verdict is that R&S Autos suits you if pictured past work matters more than published prices. What counts against it is the thin paperwork: no prices, insurer details or credentials are published, and an MOT testing claim names no station.
The service record shows a driveway generalist with a visual habit: servicing, diagnostics, DPF and EGR work, each job photographed and captioned in a gallery of dozens of past visits. Cover is stated across Telford and the wider Wrekin area from the Overdale base, contact runs by phone only, and comprehensive insurance for all services is stated in writing — a line few rivals offer. The MOT testing claim and classic storage sit alongside the mobile work without a named station.
The customer record reads as solid rather than glowing: a middling average on Google alone, with no other platform surfacing in the checks. Against the gallery's confidence, the reviews suggest competence that has yet to turn into advocacy. It is the profile of a firm that does the job well without giving customers a reason to shout about it.
Our verdict
Our judgement: R&S suits you if you want a mobile mechanic whose past jobs you can browse in the gallery before calling, with insurance cover stated [1] [5]. What counts against it is unpublished pricing and an MOT testing claim that names no station.

Questions about R&S Autos Mobile Mechanic
Is R&S Autos any good?
On the evidence, yes for driveway servicing you can preview: it sits third of seven in our table, with a gallery of captioned past jobs and insurance cover stated on the site. Reviews trail the top two. Browse the gallery, then ask for the quote in writing before you book.
Is R&S Autos registered with a trade scheme?
No. Industry qualifications can't be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked. That is common in this trade, where no mandatory register applies. Ask what training sits behind the work, and where an MOT would be tested, when you enquire.
What does R&S Autos charge?
It publishes no prices, call-out fee or VAT terms; the site talks of fair pricing with no hidden costs but prints no figures. That puts the weight on your enquiry: list the job, the car and the symptoms. Get the fixed figure, including parts and VAT, before you agree anything.
Where does R&S Autos work?
The outfit is based in Overdale and states cover across Telford and Wrekin, working wherever the car sits. Contact runs by phone only, with no email route published. Send your postcode and the job description when you call to confirm cover.
How is R&S Autos ranked?
It sits third of the seven mobile mechanics in our September round, decided by the scorecard alone and led by what customers say. Pictured past work and stated cover lift it above thinner pages. Read the full review, then ask for the written quote.
How do I get a quote from R&S Autos?
Phone only: there is no email route published, so the call is where the price gets set. Describe the job, the car and the symptoms, and use the gallery's captioned past jobs to point at work like yours. No prices, call-out fee or VAT terms are printed anywhere, so hold out for a fixed figure with parts and VAT shown, plus an arrival window, before you agree a time.
What do customers say about R&S Autos?
Customers rate it solid rather than glowing: four-and-a-half stars on Google across fifty-eight reviews, a notch behind the two generalists above it in the table. No other-platform footprint surfaced. Browse the gallery alongside the reviews — the captioned past jobs show what the scores alone cannot — then ask for the quote in writing before you book.
How does R&S Autos compare with the others in the round?
It sits third of the seven, the higher of the two Overdale generalists, lifted by its gallery and its stated insurance cover. It trails DAW on review average and stated cover, and trails the leader on every front that matters to gas-car owners. Where it wins is transparency of past work: no other page in the round lets you inspect the jobs before you call.
