OUR RESPONSE TO THE CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

24th March 2020.


In these unprecedented times and conditions, we wanted to write to you to say we hope you’re well and that you, your family and your friends remain safe and healthy during such a challenging period for everybody.

Please be assured that the welfare of our customers and employees during this time remains our priority.

For this reason, we have made the decision to temporarily close the sales departments in all of our M53 dealerships until further notice. The government recommendations changed yesterday, and the advice is that it is no longer appropriate to keep our dealerships open to the public. We must honour this and respectfully play our part to protect our communities.

However the government classes garages as essential so we need to keep you on the road. We have set up an emergency essential repair team that will be working out of Ellesmere Port for servicing, mot’s and emergency repairs. When you phone in please choose option 2. Opening times are as follows.

Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5.30pm

Saturday 8.30am to 12.30pm

Sunday Closed

We’ll be updating you via email, text and social media so you’re never out of the loop during this tough period. If you haven’t already connected with us, you can find us on…
