Located in a prosperous and picturesque area of the North West, the garage offers MOT testing (class 4 and class 7), tyre fitting, air conditioning repairs, and electrical and vehicle repairs, alongside engine diagnostics, wheel alignment and vehicle tracking, car engine tuning and engine rebuilds. 

With a small, long-serving core team of staff, the company has cultivated an exceptional reputation in the market, boasting a 4.9/5 Google rating across 85 reviews and a 98.7% rating on the Good Garage Scheme across 246 testimonials.

As the busiest independent garage in the area, the business has 1598 active customers, with 2718 vehicles invoiced last year.
