CoGoGo are pleased to have been given the opportunity to manage the sale of Auto Engine Tune which is a well-established Garage and Mot Centre with a renowned reputation amongst residents. This is a superb opportunity to take on a high turnover local business in an area teeming with customers.
There has been a garage at this site for over 50 years and the current owners have run it successfully and lucratively as Auto Engine Tune for the last 14 years or so. The business has been a real labour of love for them and has accrued an impressive number of regular customers and a fantastic reputation.
The business is now being sold albeit reluctantly and with heavy hearts only due to a wish to take a well-earned retirement, the vendors are keen to see their beloved garage pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner (s) who can take this already thriving business to the next level.
