Servicing
The greatest compliment to any business is a customer that comes back and also tells their friends and colleagues how good you are. Literally hundreds of customers use our services time and time again. They are all too aware of the quality, great value and technical expertise of our fully trained and highly experienced technicians.
You have the piece of mind to know that whilst your vehicle is in our custody, it is fully insured and have the additional reassurance of professional indemnity guarantees that ensure all our work and the parts we use are fully guaranteed.
Finally, although our workshop is fully equipped with state of the art diagnostic systems, tools and equipment our overheads are low compared with a multi-million pound dealership allowing us to deliver outstanding value for money. At only £39.00 + VAT for workshop labour compared to over £95.00 + VAT per hour for work that maybe carried out by a less qualified technician.
Just for your information, here are just a few examples of Derby’s local main manufacturer dealer labour rates (we must stress these figures were given verbally over the phone during September 2008 and some dealers labour rates vary depending on the type and age of the car, so therefore cannot be quoted for any specific use):

Environmental Issues - Our Responsibility and Obligation
We are constantly striving to exceed all our environmental waste and recycling targets. As well as disposing of all your waste oils, tyres, batteries, cardboard packaging and metals with registered waste disposal experts, we actually crush every oil filter to extract as much oil as possible and dispose of the crushed carcases with a specialist separately, minimising as best possible our general waste landfill issues.
We are also a member of the MVRA (motor vehicle repairers association) this is an automotive trade body that assures you the consumer that any work done, is carried out by professional staff using approved parts and the right equipment, to a specific standard, also ensuring you are treated fairly and resolve any issues to an acceptable conclusion.
THE MVRA and its members are currently in the final stages of being approved under the OFT code of practice scheme.
