CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market this well-established and very busy motor vehicle repair and MoT business in Basildon, Essex. The business was established by our client in 1985 and is only now being offered to the market due to our client’s desire for a well-deserved retirement. The business currently operates 5 days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £160,000 per annum, with a gross profit of approximately 56%. Our client offers a wide variety of vehicle services including car servicing and repairs, motorcycle servicing and repairs, light commercial van servicing and repairs, electronic diagnostics, fault finding and MoTs, which are done by appointment only. Mot’s are currently sub-contracted, however we are advised that there is ample room for an MOT bay which would allow for this service to be brought in-house, therefore significantly increasing profit. The premises boasts over 195 sq. metres and includes a large double height unit, an office and a customer waiting area. The business has built up an enviable reputation within the area for the high quality of the services offered, which has resulted in a very loyal client base, with a high volume of repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. We feel there is scope to increase the turnover by extending the opening hours and offering Saturday trading. A new owner could also embark on a modest marketing campaign to highlight the excellent services offered. The business already has a very informative website in place at www.kswautos.co.uk. We are advised that a leasehold option is available for £99,995 + SAV. This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner to take this already thriving business to the next level; therefore early viewing must come highly recommended to avoid disappointed.
