Meet Martin, our Senior Technician at AV Autos.

Martin’s interest in cars started early, spending time fixing them with his older brother before deciding to turn that fascination into a career.

At just 15, he began studying car mechanics and bodywork at Ostrava College in the Czech Republic.

His passion doesn’t stop when he leaves the garage. Martin is a motorbike enthusiast too.

Say hello next time you’re in. 👋🏼

After weeks of unsuccessful repairs elsewhere, Irina brought her Vauxhall Insignia to AV Autos looking for answers.

Getting to the root of a problem is why proper diagnosis matters. It means less guesswork, clearer advice and a repair based on what the car actually needs.

That’s the approach we believe every customer deserves.

This World EV Day, we’re celebrating how much motoring continues to change, but some things remain just as important.

EVs still need an MOT once they reach the required age, and at AV Autos, we can carry out MOT testing for electric vehicles too.

Whether you drive petrol, diesel, or electric, you can expect the same careful approach and honest advice from our team.

The school run is back. So is everything that comes with it.

Early starts, busy roads, after-school clubs and the everyday journeys that keep family life moving.

When the routine gets busy again, having a car you can depend on is one less thing to think about.

That’s why looking after the small things and staying on top of maintenance matters throughout the year.

Here’s to a smooth start to the new school term.

That strange noise is your car trying to tell you something.

A knock, squeak, rattle or grinding sound can have a number of causes, which is why finding the source properly matters.

Rather than guessing and replacing parts unnecessarily, we look at the full picture to understand what’s actually going on.

Hearing something that doesn’t sound right? Book in and let us take a proper look.
