Just a quick post to highlight the myth of “upselling” when it comes to basic maintenance of your vehicle.
If your trusted vehicle repair center advises you to carry out scheduled maintenance,it is usually to save you money further down the road,and keep your vehicle in a healthy reliable condition.
I will use a few snaps we took earlier from a vehicle we had in just to show the outcome of skipping service intervals and regular oil changes,with a rough outline of the repair costs due to this inevitable failure.
A basic service for this vehicle would be somewhere between £200- to £250
The repair bill for not doing so is considerably higher
1x replacement turbocharger unit £650
Professional dpf cleanse £350
Intercooler flushing/cleaning £100
Oil feed pipes replaced £180
Oil & filter £60-70
Labour for total works undertaken £600
So in short nearly £2k in repairs for not spending £200 in maintenance
The service schedule is there for good reason,always adhere to it & trust your technician 👍

The start of another automotive adventure began this week, with us taking delivery of this beautiful beast that has been laid up for 20 years without turning a wheel.
This car was left to me by my stepfather,after sadly passing away last year,it was one of his prized possessions he would never have parted with for any amount of money,and was only laid up due to declining health.
I now have the task of resurrecting this car to its former glory and getting it back to its very best.
Just getting it back to the shop was difficult enough,but it’s in the right place now and we can get underway 👍
I will be keeping a blog and possibly even YouTube channel for the restoration process for any of you that may be interested in watching,and to any of you guys that live and breath Pontiacs I will most likely be in touch,
To those who don’t know what it is I will enlighten you: Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am 5.7 LT1 1994. Very special car,not your everyday hack,watch this space folks!!

After a good few weeks of graft and carnage,we are pleased to announce the opening of our second workshop(Unit 35 & 36) we are now running two ramps and able to get you back on the road that bit quicker.
None of this would have been possible without the help of some very good friends and a lot of their time and skill sets,it’s been a good hard slog but thank you so much for all your efforts,it’s very much appreciated 😘,and a big thanks to our customers for bearing with us during this process,we hope to see you soon and get you booked in quicker than before 👍
