A B Gelder

Ever since my rusty Volvo and I first pitched up in Sheffield, I’ve been a loyal customer of Gelder’s on Sharrowvale Road.
I found them at random in the Yellow Pages, while looking for a local garage — they specialise in Volvos, and so having one myself, they seemed ideal. I’d always been a bit wary when using a garage for the first time without recommendation, especially as a woman — would they see me coming? But I needn’t have worried here. They always take time to explain what needs doing, and never seem to carry out any unecessary repairs. Their invoices are clear and easy to follow, and prices are excellent — if you have a Volvo then they can usually source reconditioned spares at very good prices. When I showed my bills from Gelder’s to my dad, who works in a garage at the other side of the country, he confirmed how reasonable they are.
My Volvo has long been relegated to the scrap merchant, but I’ve continued to use Gelder’s, as they will repair other car makes too, although it might take them a bit longer to source spares. They don’t do MOTs, but they have an agreement with a MOT centre nearby, so they can usually complete the process within the day provided not too much needs doing. Highly recommended!
