• Vehicle Collection and Delivery. The garage will come and collect your car from your home or place of work and return it after all the work is complete.
• Customer Drop-off. You take your vehicle to the garage and they give you a lift to where you need to go. You may need to make your own way back to the garage to collect your vehicle.
• Loan Car. If you’ve got places to be, you may be able to secure a courtesy car to keep you on the road.
Some garages offer these services for free, while others may charge an additional fee.

You may be able to book these services at your chosen garage for other maintenance jobs, but you should check with them directly as we don’t currently offer the ability to book them with anything except an MOT or service.
