What We Do

Full-service garage.
No nonsense.

Whether it's a sticker flickering on your dashboard or a full service due, our team handles the lot — properly, and on time.

/ 01

Interim & Full Servicing

Manufacturer-sensitive service schedules using quality parts and approved oils. Keep your warranty intact and your engine happy.

→
/ 02

MOT Preparation

Pre-MOT checks that catch the small things before the inspector does. We'll talk you through any advisories honestly — no scare tactics.

→
/ 03

Brake & Clutch

Pads, discs, callipers, clutches and hydraulics. Genuine and OEM-equivalent parts, fitted and road-tested the same day where possible.

→
/ 04

Engine Diagnostics

Modern code-reading kit pinpoints what's actually wrong — not just what the sensor suggests. We interpret, then we fix.

→
/ 05

Tyres & Wheel Alignment

Sourcing, fitting, balancing and tracking. Even wear means better miles per tank and a car that drives straight.

→
/ 06

Electrical & Battery

From flat batteries to stubborn warning lights, we trace electrical faults methodically — alternators, starters, wiring and sensors.

→
/ 07

Exhaust & Emissions

Replacement exhausts, catalytic converters and DPF checks. We'll get you through emissions with the minimum of fuss.

→
/ 08

Suspension & Steering

Shock absorbers, springs, drop links, track rods — we tighten up the wobble and bring the feel of the drive back.

→
/ 09

General Maintenance

Bulbs, wipers, filters, fluids, cambelts. The small jobs that quietly keep your car on the road for years longer.

→

Booked in for a full service and they picked up a brake issue I didn't even know I had. Saved me a fortune down the line. Genuinely honest advice — couldn't recommend v-tec highly enough.

Proper old-school garage feel with modern kit. Diagnosed an electrical fault two other places missed. Friendly, fair priced, and the work was spot on. My van's never run better.

★★★★☆

Always take the family cars here. Straight talking, no nasty surprises on the invoice. They actually take the time to explain what they've done. Wouldn't go anywhere else locally.
