As a car garage which is manned by expert mechanics, we can carry out a car service for you professionally. Our aim is to provide a full car service Southampton residents can have great confidence in. After all, we are a Southampton clutch specialist but we also undertake other car service work, such as hybrid car servicing. Our work includes a parts and labour warranty which lasts for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes sooner. Furthermore, as an MoT test centre, you can combine your MoT test with a car service if you like. Alternatively, you can book a full or small car service independently at our MoT centre to ensure your vehicle is in pristine condition for the coming year.
No credit card needed! You only pay once the work is completed.
Vehicle manufacturers typically recommend alternating between small and full services annually, with small service being performed in one year, followed by a full service in the next year, and so on.
