Business Description
We are delighted to present this fantastic opportunity to acquire the valuable freehold rights to a thriving commercial proposition of uncommon size, quality and further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents exceptional value.
This long established and highly regarded limited company is currently primarily equipped to high industry specifications to undertake an excellent range of fast and professional automotive solutions for a long-standing and still-expanding repeat and referral client base, ranging from private vehicle owners to small fleet operators, with a considerable volume of year-round ‘drive in’ trade generated by its prime main road position.
The workshop offers services ranging from fully accredited Class IV MOT work to general auto mechanical repairs, maintenance, diagnostics, clutch, brake and exhaust services for most petrol and diesel private and light commercial marques and motorcycles.
The company is also widely renowned for the supply and fitting of new and quality part-worn tyres, with an excellent range of premium-quality replacement parts and spares also available.
This versatile proposition now also conducts a recently introduced, and increasingly popular sales operation of a wide selection of new and quality pre-owned motorcycles, parts, spares, accessories, helmets and clothing, all displayed to its very best advantage in spacious internal showroom and external forecourt areas and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with ample scope for continued growth, not least with regard to operating significantly extended weekend hours in order to exploit the full potential sales and technical capacity of its facilities.
The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online advertising and sales and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already impressive levels of turnover it has achieved in the course of some fifteen highly successful years’ trading in the hands of the current director, with the aid of an experienced and motivated team of five full-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would unreservedly recommend a viewing.
