Our Service, Workshops & Parts Departments are open | COVID-19

Customer Update: 12/04/21

Our Servicing/MOT/Repair and Workshop departments remain open as usual.

Following Government advice, we are doing everything we can to ensure the safety of our staff and customers. When you visit, please follow social distancing rules and safety advice, and wear a face mask or face covering.

We are protecting our staff with regular rapid testing. Regular testing means a safer workplace but also helps to protect our customers too.

We have increased the frequency of hand washing, surface cleaning and disinfecting, high hygiene levels are maintained throughout the dealerships.

Staff will be wearing a mask or face covering at all times, around colleagues and customers.

The use of screens or barriers are used to enhance social distancing.

Hand Sanitiser is readily available throughout.

Staff are adopting a back-to-back or side-to-side working (rather than face-to-face) whenever possible.

Important: £6.50 Sanitisation Charge - We must make you aware that there will be a deep cleaning charge for all cars until further notice.

It is important that we make you aware of a sanitisation charge which will be in place until further notice. In order to protect everyone involved we have to ensure the vehicle is safe before we begin the required work and you collect your vehicle. All vehicle touch point areas have to be cleansed with sanitised wipes and spray, once the work is complete the vehicle has to then undergo a full anti-viral sanitisation process, ready for collection.

This is a charge we would rather not have to impose, unfortunately the current situation leaves us with no alternative. As a Group we have made the decision to subsidise the cost of the treatment to £6.50 including VAT. We pride ourselves on the service we offer to our customers, backed by our 90 years heritage we would hope that our customers understand and appreciate that the decisions we make are in support of their loyalty.

The treatment has been available as an option in our service centres for the last ten years priced at the MRRP of £29.50. The £6.50 charge does not cover our business costs which by advice of the Government we have had to implement per vehicle, but we appreciate that we are all in a very difficult no- fault situation and we are doing the best we can to help, serve and protect our customers to the very best of our ability.

We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your business.

We have reduced staffing levels providing adequate space for our staff to adapt and work with the new social distancing measures. Please be aware, we anticipate our procedures taking longer than normal due to the new measures in place.

A key part of our new process means working together with our customers and trying to create the best experience we can, given the circumstances. Due to the measures in place it is vital that you arrive for your appointment on time as unfortunately we no longer have the appointment flexibility we have been used to. For example, if your appointment is at 08:30, please be prompt - this will ensure a smooth process for us to manage appointments and avoid delays.
