๐Ÿ”ง๐Ÿš— A quick update from P&P Automotive ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ”ง
First of all, I just want to say a huge thank you to all our amazing customers โ€” old and new โ€” for bearing with us over the last few weeks. Itโ€™s been a tough period with a massive workload and a very hectic family life behind the scenes.
As some of you know, weโ€™ve had a few issues at home recently, weโ€™re slowly getting back to normal opening times.

With everything going on โ€” and the current economic climate โ€” weโ€™ve had to make the difficult decision to increase our labour rate to ยฃ60 per hour starting from 1st April. This wasnโ€™t an easy choice, but it allows us to keep doing what we do properly and maintain the standard of work our customers expect.
On the positive side, weโ€™ve still managed to complete a wide range of jobs, keeping plenty of vehicles safe and legal on the road ๐Ÿ’ช
And a little personal win โ€” weโ€™ve got our Disco running on its new BMW engine! ๐Ÿš™
Still a few weeks off being fully back on the road as thereโ€™s plenty left to do (fitting it in around customer work as always), but itโ€™ll get thereโ€ฆ one way or another ๐Ÿ˜‰
Thanks again for the continued support and patience โ€” it genuinely means a lot.

๐Ÿ”ง๐Ÿš— Another full-on week at P&P Automotive! ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ”ง
Itโ€™s been one of those weeks where every day brought something differentโ€ฆ
Monday โ€“ A poorly Ford Kuga stuck in limp mode. No new parts needed โ€” just knowledge, experience and a few workshop consumables to get it sorted and keep costs down for the customer ๐Ÿ’ช
Tuesday โ€“ A VW Passat in for a thermostat replacementโ€ฆ the sort of job that makes you question a 20-year career in the motor trade ๐Ÿ˜…
Wednesday โ€“ Glow plugs on a Ford Mondeo. Normally seized and awkward โ€” not this set! Oh noโ€ฆ we just had to remove the entire front of the engine instead. Easily the worst set Iโ€™ve done.
Thursday โ€“
โ€ข MOT on a Mini (one new sidelight bulb and a pass โœ…)
โ€ข Cambelt replacement on a Ford Fiesta due to a leaking water pump. This one had a cambelt and pump less than two years ago โ€” but the old gasket hadnโ€™t been cleaned off properly, causing it to leak. Proof that doing a job properly matters.
Friday โ€“
โ€ข MOT on the Fiesta โœ…
โ€ข Clutch replacement on a VW Golf to round the week off nicely.
Busy, varied, and always learning โ€” thatโ€™s life in a one-man workshop.
Thanks as always for the continued support and patience while we work through the diary. Quality work takes time, but itโ€™s always worth it.

๐Ÿš— Busy Months at P&P Automotive! ๐Ÿš—
The last few months have been non-stop in the workshop, with a surprising amount of gearbox-related work coming through the doors (no, Iโ€™m not a gearbox specialistโ€ฆ even if everyone seems to think I am! ๐Ÿ˜…).
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Clutch replacements on Corsas
๐Ÿšš Heavy-duty clutch work on Renault Master trucks for local businesses
๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Automatic gearbox servicing on a special American F-150 pickup
๐Ÿš™ Plenty of Land Rover jobs โ€“ engine swaps and inlet manifold replacements on both V8 and V6 models

Alongside customer work, weโ€™ve also been trying to find time to push on with our own work truck conversion.
This last month in particular has mostly been about making one good gearbox out of two ๐Ÿ˜‰ โ€” problem-solving, not specialising!
Thanks as always for the continued support and patience - it really is appreciated.

๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’ช Flat Out at P&P Automotive! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿš—

๐Ÿ”ง MOT retest on a trusty VW Polo

Busy times here at the garage โ€“ at the moment weโ€™re booked up until the middle of next week. This solo pair of hands is working hard to chew through the backlog and keep everyone safely on the road. ๐Ÿ’ช

๐Ÿš— New Arrival at P&P Automotive โ€“ BMW 330d M Sport ๐Ÿš—

Picked this 330d up for a customer, but after a closer look it turned out to be worse than expected. Rather than let it go to waste, weโ€™ve purchased it ourselves for breaking.

Engine, gearbox, ECU & wiring loom provisionally sold โœ…

Plenty of other parts available!

Yesterday we received the heartbreaking news of the passing of Ryan Ballsy of RB Autos. Its taken some time to gather our thoughts and put a post as itโ€™s hard to put into words the loss of a fellow local mechanic, recovery driver, and colleague.

Ryan was deeply respected and will be missed by all who knew him. The recovery industry is a dangerous place(ive personally been in very similar scenarios which can be a very scary situation) His passing is a sobering reminder for us all. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.
