Questions
Before you ring.
Do you come to me?
Yes. We collect the car from home or work and bring it back when it is done — and if it will not start, we come out to it. Around Middlesbrough and out across the North East.
Can you do my MOT?
We collect the car, take it for its test and bring it back — we have done MOTs that way for years. The test itself has to happen at an approved station; ring and we will arrange it.
What does it cost?
Ring and ask. Prices depend on the car and the job, so we quote on the phone rather than publishing a list written for somebody else’s motor.
What do you need from me?
The registration, your postcode, and what the car is doing. A photo or a short video of the noise helps.
How do I book?
Call 07876 283366 or send a WhatsApp to Dave. Hours are on this page, seven days.
