We provide clear explanations of results and necessary repairs, helping Norwich drivers maintain compliance while ensuring roadworthiness.
Wheel Alignment
Precision wheel alignment using the John Bean V2000 system optimises tyre performance and longevity. This service corrects steering and suspension angles to manufacturer specifications, improving fuel efficiency and driving safety. Our 3D imaging technology ensures accurate adjustments for all vehicle types, enhancing handling and reducing uneven wear.
Forte Treatment
Forte fuel treatments restore engine efficiency through advanced chemical formulations. These solutions clean fuel systems, regenerate diesel particulate filters, and reduce emissions in both petrol and diesel engines. Regular application maintains optimal combustion, prevents costly repairs, and extends vehicle lifespan while improving performance and environmental compliance.

We supply and fit quality tyres for all vehicle types using SUN fitting equipment and SNAP ON TPMS technology. Our service includes expert advice on tread patterns and seasonal requirements, ensuring proper inflation and sensor functionality. Competitive pricing and rapid fitting make us Norwich's preferred choice for tyre safety and performance.

Fairly unbelievable what happened to my car but I will never be using this garage again. I could go to the trading standards but I have no proof, very disappointed. My problem has now been resolved by another garage.

Vehicle was taken here for it's first MOT by the garage that serviced the car. Number One motors managed to add 60k miles to the MOT certificate. Yes they apologised but it was down to me to sort the error out with DVSA, fortunately I had documentation to back up my submission. Check your documents carefully.
