One garage for the life of your car

We would rather look after your car for years than fix it once. Here is how most of our regulars use us.

1

Service and MOT, once a year

Book them together to save on the MOT, and we check brakes, tyres and suspension as part of the service.

2

An interim if you do big miles

Over 12,000 miles a year? An interim service every 6 months or 6,000 miles protects the engine in between.

3

Faults found early

A warning light or a new noise? We diagnose it properly and explain what we find, so small problems stay small.

4

Bigger jobs, quoted and spread

When something does need doing, you get a clear quote first, and 0% finance if you want to spread the cost.

Why people stay with TGPP-Autocare

Finding a garage you trust is hard. This is how we try to earn it, and keep it.

Honest about what needs doing

We tell you what needs doing now and what can wait. If your car does not need something yet, we will say so.

A fixed price, agreed first

You know the cost before the work starts. If we find something else, we show you and you decide.

We show you what we find

Every fault is explained in plain English. Want photos of the problem, or to see the old parts after the job? Just ask and we will show you.

Your warranty stays valid

Under UK rules you can service your car at an independent garage without affecting the manufacturer warranty, as long as the correct parts and fluids are used. We always use them.

12-month guarantee

Parts and labour on all our work, using OEM or equivalent parts as standard.

Family-run, people first

Tom and Pat run it. You deal with the people doing the work, not a call centre.

"Absolutely brilliant garage. Took my Focus in for a full service and MOT, both done same day, car ready by lunchtime. They were completely upfront about what was needed and the price was exactly what was quoted. Won't go anywhere else."

The people behind the garage

"Finding a garage you can trust shouldn't be this hard."

We are Tom and Pat. We have seen plenty of garages cut corners: unnecessary work, vague quotes that creep up by the time you collect the car, no real explanation of what is wrong. TGPP is our answer to that.

Bring your car to us and you get a fixed price before we start, a clear explanation of anything we find, and a straight answer, including "you don't need this yet" when that is the truth.

We do not want to fix your car once. We want to be the garage you use for years, for the service, the MOT and everything in between. Most of our work now comes from word of mouth and repeat customers, and that is the bit we are proudest of.

Most manufacturers say every 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first. If you drive more than 12,000 miles a year, an interim service every 6 months or 6,000 miles protects the engine in between. Your car's service book has its own schedule, which we follow.
