The Luctonians Vixens have made brilliant progress over the last 3 years, but what has impressed us most is the collective and inclusive nature of the group.

If you fancy a try…. Ahem, we know - that was the best Tim could offer. Then head down to Mortimer Park on Tuesdays in July!

A tyre that's fine in March can be a problem in June.

Heat raises the pressure inside the tyre, and a loaded car raises the demand on it. An underinflated tyre flexes more, builds more heat, and that's how sidewalls fail on hot motorway runs.

Before the holiday miles start: check pressures cold, and use the loaded figure on the door pillar sticker if you're carrying a full car. If you tow, look at the caravan or trailer tyres too. They age standing still, and cracking on the sidewall is a replacement job whatever the tread says.

Modern engines are built around a specific oil. Put the wrong one in and it'll run, but it won't run right.

The wrong specification affects wear, fuel economy and performance, especially on short journeys. So we keep a range of Castrol approved oils in stock and match the spec to the engine, never the other way round.

That's what being a Castrol Certified garage means in practice. It's also why the team picked up Castrol Garage of the Year 2025 at the Castrol Service Conference. That one belongs to them.

The first warm week of the year is when most people find out their air con stopped working.

It rarely fails suddenly. The refrigerant leaks away slowly, the system works harder to do less, and then one hot afternoon it's blowing warm air at you.

We regas both R134a and the newer R1234yf on site, so it doesn't matter how old your car is. If it's a leak or a fault rather than just low gas, we can test and diagnose that too.

Adaptive cruise control. Lane departure warning. The camera behind your windscreen reading the road ahead.

All ADAS. Most drivers have no idea they're running it.

That matters because these systems don't just need to work, they need to be aimed correctly. Replace a windscreen, change the wheel alignment, do suspension work, and the sensors can end up looking at the wrong patch of road. A camera pointing a fraction off isn't a camera you want making decisions for you.

Recalibration after that kind of work isn't optional. We've got the kit and the training to do it properly.

Tim breaks down what ADAS actually covers in the video below 👇

A fleet vehicle off the road is a job not being done.

That's the thing Katie keeps in front of her all day. When one of your vans is in with us, she's not waiting for you to chase. You get the health check, the condition report, and a straight answer on when it's coming back, often before you've thought to ask.

Some of that is knowing which vehicle you need first thing tomorrow. Some of it is flagging what's coming up so you can plan the downtime instead of having it sprung on you.

Good fleet work is half mechanical, half communication. Katie handles the second half.

A fleet running on surprises isn't a fleet, it's a fire drill.

The thing our fleet customers tell us they value most isn't the spanner work. It's knowing what's happening with their vehicles before it becomes a problem.

So that's what we focus on. Scheduled servicing planned in advance. Clear updates while a vehicle's with us. A straight answer on what needs doing now and what can wait.

No chasing. No vague timelines. No "we'll let you know."

Just consistent communication, so you can plan your week around your business, not around the workshop.

Has your motorhome sat still for six months? If yes, then read this.

Brake discs corrode. Tyres develop flat spots and sidewall cracks where they've been loaded in one position. Habitation batteries quietly lose capacity. Diesel sitting in a tank picks up moisture.

None of that shows up on the dashboard before you set off.

A pre-season service catches it and our 6.5 metre four-post ramp takes the larger A-class and coachbuilt motorhomes that most workshops can't lift, and we work to the manufacturer schedule on the chassis side so your warranty stays intact.

Worth booking in before the Whitsun bank holiday rather than the morning you're meant to be leaving.
