     I originally set up the business in 1990. Then when Charlie became 16, He

     joined me and then finally, Susan joined us to take care of office & driving
     duties. I am responsible for most of the specialist services & repairs that
     we have to offer, as well as nearly all of the in-depth diagnostic testing &
     repairs. I have been involved in the motor trade for over 35 years. I have
     trained with some of the best diagnostic equipment available to the motor
     industry & have also completed many training courses run by one of the

     biggest Automotive suppliers & developers in the world. I believe that no

     one person can know everything about every make of vehicle on the market,

     but it does help to have as good an understanding as possible, that is why I  

     intend to continue advance training in the near future, to help enable me to

     remain one of the leading technicians in our locality!

   Charles Pearce AMIMI: Director/Vehicle Technician (EV Level 3)
 

I am the Senior Tech in the business. I have been involved in the motor
trade since the age of 16. My role in the business is to carry-out all types
of mechanical servicing & repairs, as well as helping out with the more in-
depth diagnostic tests & repairs. I have also completed many  training

courses & intend to complete many more in the near future. This will help

me to remain one of the most advanced Senior technicians in our locality. Repairing vehicles is a very challenging job & I find that I am learning something new every day. I take great pride in my work & ensure that all

of my jobs are carried out to a very high standard. I am also involved in

many of the specialist services that we offer, especially computerised four wheel alignment using our Bosch fully computerised wheel alignment system.

                  Susan Gunstone: Director, Accounts & Driver

I am Paul's wife & a company Director. I spend most of my time behind the scenes taking care of the day to day running of the business. Although you may see me floating around from time to time, I am mainly to be found sorting through paperwork, banking payments or preparing paperwork for our bookeeper. Part of my duties is also to deliver the courtesy cars to our customers & then bring their motor vehicles back to the workshop. It has

always been our policy to offer a courtesy car service for very many of our  customers over the age of 21. I also drive the company van to collect spare parts, tyres, etc when required. This means that Paul & Charlie can remain in the workshop & means that there is no valuable time wasted by either of our technicians chasing parts for vehicles under repair in the workshop!

          Lewis Ryall - Apprentice Vehicle Technician


 

​My Name is Lewis Ryall & I am currently studying for my level 3 Motor Vehicle

Technician qualification with the company. I am interested in all things to do with

the job & enjoy learning about all the new systems coming into the trade & the

methods & equipment for testing these systems. Working on modern day cars &

vans can be very interesting, but sometimes be quite demanding. Both Paul &

Charlie are always on hand to give me advice & guidance when I do actually find

something a bit complex or something new that I have never seen before. In my

spare time I am a keen motorcyclist & like nothing more than to get out on my
bike with my mates, both evenings & weekends.
