Engine light on? We plug in proper main-dealer-grade kit, find the fault, and quote you a fix before we touch anything.
Buying a used motor off Facebook or a forecourt? Bring it down, we'll give it the once-over and a written report.

Dave opened North Park Garage in 1994 after a decade at the local Ford dealer. He'd had enough of selling people work they didn't need, so he set up on his own on the Wakefield ring road and told customers exactly what was wrong with their car. Word got around.
Thirty-two years later we're still on the same patch — same three-bay workshop, same approach. We don't sell you brake fluid changes you don't need. We don't tell you the suspension's gone when it's a worn drop link. If it's safe to drive, we'll say so.
Took my Qashqai in expecting the worst after the engine light came on. Dave plugged it in, said it was a faulty sensor, charged me fifty quid and had me out by lunchtime. Wakefield Audi quoted £480 for the same job. Won't take it anywhere else now.
Ring the workshop direct. No call centre, no menu options — Dave, Sam or Liam will pick up and book you in.
