Fabulous surprise today as my cousin from Botswana made a surprise visit to the garage whilst over for an 18th birthday.

We have a complete power outage at the garage at the moment. SSEN have advised that it may be 17:00 before the power comes back on.

The phone is diverted but the signal is poor. If you can’t reach us, leave a message and we’ll return your call as soon as we can.

Just a short reminder that we re-open tomorrow, Tuesday the 6th of January at 08:15.

As we are having electrical work done today it has not been possible to do any meaningful work on vehicles, and so the team are enjoying an extra day off.

Analysing the data from our 2025 solar generation data at Gray’s, we generated slightly more than we consumed overall.

Given that all of the heating, hot water and about 75% of our electric vehicle charging is included in our consumption figures, we’re pretty pleased with this.

As the sun sets at Gray’s on Christmas Eve we want to thank all of our customers, suppliers, partners and employees for another fantastic year, and to wish you all a blessed Christmas and New Year.

We’re back a day later than most on Tuesday the 6th of January at 08:15 as we are getting electrical work done on the 5th. We look forward to seeing you all in 2026.

Gray’s Auto Services will be closed tomorrow as we are having all of our electrical systems inspected to ensure that everything is safe for our customers and staff. We will reopen on Friday at 08:15.

At Gray’s we take our social responsibility to the local and wider community very seriously. Over the past year or so, we have been investing in reducing our impact on the local environment across a range of initiatives.

In that time we have:

👉 replaced all our outdated fluorescent lighting with highly efficient LED units
👉 replaced our oil fired central heating with an air source heat pump
👉 installed solar panels and battery storage which have generated more local energy than we’ve used over the past 365 days
👉 installed a rain water harvesting system so that our toilets and car washing activities don’t use fresh, treated water
👉 installed an EV charger to charge our own vehicles, as well as those EVs left by our customers while they are in our care
👉 replaced our courtesy car with an electric vehicle that uses energy that we generate to drive around the local area; truly zero tail pipe emissions
👉 replaced our diesel van with an electric van for local and regional use e.g. collecting urgent parts from Inverness, collecting cars, even lending it to customers

These activities alone have reduced our CO2 emissions by more than 12.5 tons, or the equivalent of having planted 207 trees.

For those of you with EVs, please feel free to come to discuss your needs with us. We have two EV qualified technicians who have worked on a range of different vehicles. This is in addition to their already well respected capabilities for fixing anything with a conventional engine.

If you have any questions or just want to come see the technology, please feel free to call me to arrange to see it for yourself.

Oh and one final thing, the guys also have smart new uniforms to boot 😎
