— David Thompson Owner Ashleys Tow Taxi

Have used Ashley's tow taxi a few times now and wouldn't use anyone else!! They really go the extra mile and are fantastic at problem solving those out of the ordinary jobs.

Very efficient service, friendly and all one could ask for when your car breaks down.

The guy I had was great. He was thorough, checked everything, a very curtious guy and made sure i was happy with what he did as he did it. I couldn't fault him.
