Benefits of having a service
Services are beneficial for keeping your vehicle in good health as much as possible. Although we cannot prevent future breakdowns entirely we can prevent them as much as possible by ensuring that we are aware of any upcoming changes to the vehicles' condition. Preventative work is much easier and cheaper to do rather than repairs which could cause damage to other components with the vehicle. Having an MOT and service ensures that your vehicle is roadworthy and safe to drive so will give you peace of mind for your journeys.
When should you have a service?
We recommend that you service your vehicle annually to ensure that you are giving your vehicle all the relevant health checks it needs and to be aware of any work that may need doing in the near future. The level of the service will depend on your service history and the amount of miles you have done since your last service. We can find this out if your vehicle service book has been filled out.
The UK average mileage per vehicle is roughly 8,000 per year. With this mileage we would recommend that you alternate between a full service and an interim or seasonal service each year. If you are unaware of the service history of your vehicle or the vehicle is new to you we would recommend a full service for peace of mind to allow you to start your own service history.
Our promise to you
We promise to advise you of the most relevant service to suit your needs and requirements. We will take into account; the last time you had service, at what mileage and the level of the service that you had.
We promise to advise you on the necessary work that will need doing promptly and when you shall expect to carry out further repairs to the vehicle.
We are a VOSA approved MOT testing station and are compliant with all specifications applied to MOT tests. We will ensure that your vehicle meets the minimum safety requirements as advised by VOSA. Please note that all vehicles tested must meet the minimum requirements as advised by VOSA at the time of test.
