What we do

Everything your car needs, under one roof.

From an MOT failure to a seized locking wheel nut, bring it in. And if your problem is not on the list, ask: there is plenty more we can help with.

All services
01 MOT repairsFailed an MOT, or picked up advisories you would rather sort now? Bring the paperwork and we will put the faults right so your car is ready for its retest. 02 ServicingRegular servicing keeps your car reliable and helps catch small problems before they turn into big bills. Tell us the make and model and we will look after it. 03 BrakesSquealing, grinding, a soft pedal or a warning light on the dash: get your brakes checked and repaired by people who will tell you straight what it needs. 04 SuspensionKnocks over bumps, uneven tyre wear or a car that wanders on the road usually point to the suspension. We will find the cause and fix it. 05 ClutchesA slipping, juddering or heavy clutch is more than an annoyance. We repair and replace clutches so you can change gear with confidence again. 06 DiagnosticsEngine management light on, or a fault you cannot pin down? We diagnose the problem first, explain what we have found, then agree the repair with you. 07 WeldingCorrosion and structural repairs that need welding are part of the job here, including the welding work that comes up at MOT time. 08 Locking wheel nut removalLost the key to your locking wheel nuts, or the key has rounded off? We remove them so you can get on with tyres, brakes or any other work. 09 RecoveryBroken down or not safe to drive? Our recovery truck can bring your vehicle to the workshop on Market Street. Call us to arrange it.
