DO YOU OWN OR MANAGE A FLEET?

Reliable vehicles are essential to keeping your business moving.

Simon Thorpe Motor Services provides professional fleet servicing, maintenance and repairs in Grimsby for businesses operating company cars, vans and mixed vehicle fleets.

Whether you manage a small number of company vehicles or a growing business fleet, we can work with you to create a practical maintenance programme designed around your vehicles, mileage and operational requirements.

From routine servicing and MOT testing to diagnostics, tyres, brakes and unexpected repairs, our experienced team can provide one trusted point of contact for your fleet.

Vehicle Maintenance That Works Around Your Business

Taking vehicles off the road costs businesses time and money.

Our aim is to make maintaining your fleet as straightforward as possible while helping you identify potential problems before they result in breakdowns, failed MOTs or unexpected disruption.

We can look after individual company vehicles as well as fleets containing different makes and models.

Our workshop provides servicing and repairs for BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, MINI and Porsche alongside a wide range of other manufacturers.

Whether your business operates executive cars, sales vehicles, company cars or light commercial vehicles, speak to us about how we can support your fleet.

  • Manufacturer-schedule servicing
  • Interim and full vehicle servicing
  • MOT testing

Rather than treating every vehicle exactly the same, servicing can be planned according to the vehicle’s age, mileage, manufacturer requirements and the way it is used by your business.

Cars and Vans – All Makes Welcome

Although Simon Thorpe Motor Services is well known throughout Grimsby for our experience with German vehicles, our technicians also service and repair a broad range of other manufacturers.

This makes us particularly useful for businesses with mixed fleets.

Instead of having to arrange maintenance with several different garages, you can speak to one team about the servicing requirements of your vehicles.

Vehicles we regularly work with include:

  • BMW
  • Mercedes-Benz
  • Audi
  • Volkswagen
  • MINI
  • Porsche
  • Volvo
  • Nissan
  • Vauxhall
  • SEAT
  • Ford
  • Toyota
  • Renault
  • Jaguar
  • Land Rover
  • and many other manufacturers

If you have a particular make or type of vehicle within your fleet, contact us and we will confirm how we can help.

Fleet MOT Testing in Grimsby

Keeping track of MOT dates across several vehicles can quickly become another administrative job for your business.

Simon Thorpe Motor Services provides MOT testing in Grimsby and can combine MOT appointments with routine servicing where appropriate.

We currently provide MOT testing for Classes 4, 5 and 7.

Combining servicing and MOT testing can reduce the number of separate workshop visits required while also giving our technicians an opportunity to identify maintenance issues that could affect the vehicle’s reliability or roadworthiness.

Fleet Diagnostics and Fault Finding

Warning lights and intermittent vehicle faults can create unnecessary downtime when they are not diagnosed correctly.

Our workshop uses professional diagnostic equipment alongside practical inspection and testing to investigate faults rather than simply replacing components based on a fault code.

We can investigate:

  • Engine management lights
  • ABS and braking warnings
  • Emissions-related faults
  • Starting problems
  • Loss of power
  • Poor vehicle performance
  • Electrical faults
  • Unusual dashboard warnings

Once the problem has been identified, we can explain what has been found and provide recommendations before further repairs are carried out.

Tyres, Brakes and Everyday Fleet Maintenance

Not every fleet visit needs to involve major mechanical work.

Routine wear items are equally important when vehicles are covering significant business mileage.

We can assist with:

  • Replacement tyres
  • Tyre inspections
  • Wheel alignment
  • Brake pads and discs
  • Batteries
  • Suspension components
  • Air-conditioning
  • Fluid checks
  • General mechanical maintenance

Regular inspection of these components can help identify wear before it results in vehicle downtime or an MOT failure.

Free Local Collection and Delivery

We appreciate that taking an employee away from their work simply to deliver or collect a vehicle can be inconvenient.

Simon Thorpe Motor Services offers a free local collection and delivery service, subject to availability.

Speak to our team when arranging your fleet booking and we can discuss what is practical for your business.

This can be particularly useful for companies with several vehicles requiring scheduled maintenance throughout the year.

Manufacturer-Schedule Fleet Servicing

Maintaining a structured servicing programme can help preserve the condition, reliability and value of your business vehicles.

Where applicable, vehicles are serviced with reference to the appropriate manufacturer schedule and using genuine or quality original-equipment specification parts together with suitable oils and fluids.

If vehicles within your fleet are still covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, please tell us when arranging the work so that the appropriate servicing requirements, specifications and record keeping can be discussed.
