CHANGES IN THE MOTOR INDUSTRY

The motor vehicle industry is going through some interesting changes at the moment. First of all, block exemption which means that any garage can service new vehicles still under manufacturers warranty as long as the parts used are of same or better quality. Needless to say all parts are of a high quality using branded makes. (Compare our prices and services to a main dealer)

Secondly the National Consumer Council are in the process of a super complaint against the motor industry to The Office of Fair Trading. To help rectify the problem off rouge garages. One way of combating this problem is they recommend every garage should be part of a scheme or group that inspects standards of work etc..

There are many schemes and organisations out there available for garages to sign up to, but are not yet compulsory.
We have looked into all the options, but have decided to hold on for now. We want to sign up to something which means something and does not create lots of unnecessary paperwork and high subscription charges, which would mean an increase in prices for you, the customer We will keep you informed on any changes.
