We first opened with our site at Essex Road which has been trading now for over 20 years. In 1997 a major investment was made on modern equipment, staff training and computerisation to keep up with modern day cars and the name changed to Basingstoke Autocentre. Popularity resulted following many developments and increased to such a size that a new site was sought in 2002. This resulted in the open

ing of our Lennox Road MOT & Tyre Centre, after further success we were pleased to open our third site, Wade Road MOT & Tyre Centre. In April 2011 we opened our fourth site, Basingstoke Value Tyres, in response to growing customer requests for budget tyres due to the recession. In Spring 2012, we opened a new Value Tyres Centre in Farnborough, followed by another Value Tyre Centre in Thatcham early 2015.

Not sure if your wheel alignment is out? 🛞

There are a few signs to look out for. If your car pulls to one side, your steering wheel isn’t straight when driving, or you notice uneven or rapid tyre wear, it could be time for an alignment check.

Hitting potholes and kerbs can knock your alignment out, affecting handling, tyre life, and your overall driving experience. If something doesn’t feel quite right, pop in and let our team take a look. Just call 01256 460 750 or visit our website to find out more 👉 https://www.basingstokemotandtyrecentre.co.uk/tyres

Your braking system is one of the most important safety features on your car, so it’s important not to ignore the warning signs.

Squeaking or grinding noises, vibrations when braking, a spongy brake pedal, pulling to one side, or increased stopping distances could all indicate that your brakes need attention.

If you’ve noticed anything unusual when braking, don’t wait for the problem to get worse. Pop in and let our team check your braking system and advise on any repairs that may be needed.

A failing battery often gives you warning signs before it stops working completely. If your car is slow to start, your headlights seem dim, you notice electrical issues, or your battery is more than 3–5 years old, it may be time for a replacement.

If you're unsure about the condition of your battery, pop in and let our team check it for you. A quick battery test can identify potential problems early, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid an unexpected breakdown.

Your tyres play a vital role in keeping you safe on the road, so it's important to know the signs that they may need replacing.

Look out for low tread depth, uneven wear, cracks or bulges in the sidewall, or any visible damage. You may also notice reduced grip, longer stopping distances, or increased road noise while driving.

If you're unsure whether your tyres are still safe, don't take the risk. Our team can inspect them and advise whether they need replacing. Speak to our team on 01256 460 750 or visit our website to quickly and easily reserve tyres online 👉 https://www.basingstokemotandtyrecentre.co.uk/tyres

Hot weather can be just as demanding on your car as the cold.

Some of the most common causes of breakdowns in the summer include flat batteries, under-inflated or worn tyres, low coolant levels, and overheating engines. Long journeys and higher temperatures can put extra strain on your vehicle, especially if it hasn't been checked recently.

Before setting off this summer, it's worth taking a few minutes to check your tyres, battery, coolant, and fluid levels. If you have any concerns about your vehicle, just contact our friendly team on 01256 460 750.

As the temperatures rise, your car's air conditioning works harder to keep you comfortable. Over time, bacteria and unpleasant odours can build up inside the system, reducing its effectiveness and affecting the air you breathe.

An air conditioning clean helps remove bacteria, freshens the system, and improves airflow, leaving your car smelling cleaner and feeling cooler. It's a simple way to make every summer journey more comfortable for you and your passengers.

Visit our website to book an air conditioning clean online, or call our team on 01256 460 750 to discuss our air conditioning services 👉 https://www.basingstokemotandtyrecentre.co.uk
