Gertrude and team did a phenomenal job of taking ownership of the entire process of transferring my vehicle to my name. This included advising me of exactly what paperwork I needed to supply, following ups, collecting of my vehicle after … More hours, the roadworthy test and certification, fixing up brake lights and minor issues to pass the roadworthy, to getting the new license discs, new registration and fitting of new number plates and then finally returning my vehicle right back to my door. The entire thing took only 2 full working days, making it so stress free and easy for me, while they kept me in the loop the entire time. Also super affordable and friendly people. Recommend!
