In-house servicing covers essential maintenance requirements including oil changes, fluid top-ups and safety inspections.

I have used this family run company for over 25 years now. There's always a superb range of vans for hire all kept in excellent condition. They are head and shoulders above any national or larger regional based company. I have also purchased vehicles here too, the service and warranty back up cannot be faulted. An excellent and thoroughly dependable local business.

Didn't notice at the time- I know very silly, but after 3.5 h drive in a car with 1 year old baby, you kind a try to be careful and check everything. But we missed, that there were no spare wheel for van- but van just passed MOT with no notes. Its illegal not to have a spare wheel. We contacted seller and he promised to send it to us, nothing
