What we do

The full workshop, under one roof.

From routine servicing to unexpected repairs, we take on the lot — and every job is quoted upfront before we pick up a spanner. If we find something extra, you hear about it before we do it.
01
🔧
Servicing
Interim, full, and major services to manufacturer spec. All makes, all models. Genuine or quality-matched parts — your choice.
Learn more →
02
MOT prep
Pre-MOT inspection and repairs to get your car through first time. We handle the lot short of the test itself — and arrange the retest if needed.

03
🖥
Diagnostics
Warning light on? We plug in, read the codes properly, and find the actual cause — not the first part the scanner points to.
Learn more →
04
Clutches & gearboxes
Clutch replacements, gearbox repairs, dual-mass flywheels. We've done them all — including the awkward ones.

05
🚐
Vans & light commercials
Sole traders and fleet work alike. We know your van is your livelihood — we'll turn it round as fast as we can, without cutting corners.

Brakes & suspension
Pads, discs, calipers, shocks, springs, bushes. Safety-critical work done properly, with parts we'd fit to our own cars.

Why LCR

The garage your mates keep telling you about.

We started LCR in the first lockdown to see if we could make our little dream work. Four years on, we're still here — still family-run, still answering the phone ourselves, and still treating every car like it's our own.

01
Fixed price quotes, every time
You'll always get a quote before work starts. Find something extra? We ring you before we touch it.
02
Plain English, not sales patter
We'll show you the fault, explain what it actually is, and tell you straight whether it needs doing now or next service.
03
All makes, all models
Cars, vans, light commercials. Anything from a 20-year-old runaround to a newish daily.
04
A reputation built the old way
Word of mouth. 100% recommend rate on Facebook. That doesn't happen by accident — and we don't take it for granted.

Our story

Started in lockdown.
Built on word of mouth.

In January 2021, while most of the country was still locked indoors, we opened the doors of a small unit on Novers Hill and hoped for the best. The plan was simple: do proper work, charge a fair price, and treat people how we'd want to be treated.

Four years on, we've outgrown that original idea of being "just a little family garage" — but we haven't outgrown the values. Mitch and the team still handle every booking, every quote, every awkward phone call about a gearbox that's giving up the ghost. Nothing gets passed through a call centre. Nothing gets hidden behind jargon.

Most of our new customers come from a recommendation — a neighbour, a workmate, a mate down the pub. That's a responsibility, not just a marketing channel. Every car that goes out the workshop door is one we'd be happy to bump into at the traffic lights.
