The business has been established over 120+ years and has been trading under the same ownership since 1997 by our client, who has brought the business to market with a genuine reason for sale due to retirement. As a profitable business working toward high gross profit margins, we feel there is huge scope to increase revenues even further with the extension of opening hours, offering a delivery and collection service, and introducing car sales from the large forecourt. Currently undertaking all garage & mot services along with specialist classic car work, our client has built up a highly enviable reputation amongst a loyal & regular client base. The business is completely unopposed, and the site has massive potential for various revenue streams. Early viewing is advised.
