Thorpe Services


Having your car regularly serviced keeps your cars safe, both for you and other road users. Keeping your car running at its optimum performance helps boost fuel efficiency and can even extend the car’s life. Going without regular services is a false economy as it will cause the car to become inefficient and break down more frequently, causing a far bigger expense.

We also do :

  • Clutches
  • Timing Belts
  • Brakes
  • Suspension
  • Batteries
  • Exhausts
  • Diagnostics
  • Most cars only need a service once a year but of course this varies dependent on mileage and the age of the car. This can also depend on how you use your car; a lot of short journeys where the engine can’t warm up fully may mean your car needs more frequent oil and filter changes. Once we have completed your service, we ensure your service indicator has been reset and service record book has been stamped.
    Remember – you don’t need to take your car back to the main dealer for its service!

    European Commission rules that came into effect in October 2003 allow independent garages the same access to technical information on your car from the manufacturer. In other words, it means you don’t need to take the car back to a franchise dealer to keep its warranty cover intact Servicing on all cars is carried out to the manufactures standard to maintain the manufacturer’s warranty. Compare our prices to the main dealer, we at Thorpe Autos cut costs not standards. All our technicians are fully trained and qualified and all repairs and servicing are carried out to a very high standard.

    We offer full diagnostics to all makes and models, which include ABS, Airbag, Emission faults and more
