The Charnwood Car Company has been established for 30 years and the directors, father and daughter Tony Scottorn and Melanie Davie, like to think of it as very much a family concern. This extends to their many loyal customers. “We strive to offer a friendly and efficient service and aim to treat others how I would like to be treated myself” – said Melanie. The Garage is conveniently situated within a five minute walk to the town centre, bus links or main train station. However, there is a fleet of courtesy cars available free of charge whilst vehicles are off the road.

Their main branch of the business is the servicing and repair of Renault, Citroen and Peugeot cars. However with their many years of experience they can deal with all makes including light commercial vehicles – always offering fair and competitive prices. This includes all vehicles still under manufacturers' warranty, which can be serviced by Charnwood without affecting customer’s new car warranty benefits. MOT’s are also dealt with by appointment. They are members of the Good Garage Scheme and encourage would-be customers to click on their site to read customer feedback. They are also nominated repairers to the AA and RAC warranties. The Charnwood Car Company realise that you can never stand still and with this in mind have just completed their latest phase of updating facilities and equipment, to ensure the best possible service is given at all times. This includes the latest diagnostic fault finding equipment.

The Charnwood Car Company also sports the largest fleet of classic Rolls Royce wedding cars in Leicestershire in a variety of colours, supplemented by a Silver Spirit and two Bentley Turbo R’s “We are confident in providing cars and chauffeurs for around 250 weddings this year” says Tony.

Some two years ago Charnwood joined the Good Garage Scheme. The main reason behind this was to offer customers peace of mind. Not only is a proper industry-standard service carried out but also a full checklist is given to the customer along with a feedback form. This gives people the opportunity to score the service that they have received. These forms are posted directly to the good garage scheme and all results can be viewed on the Good Garage Scheme site by putting in the garage name. “This really has been a tremendous help to us” said Melanie. “When you are looking for a trustworthy garage to look after you and your vehicle you can just look on the good garage scheme site and see first hand what people have had to say about us!”

Tony, Melanie and all the staff are delighted with the way in which the business has now developed with, as always, emphasis on personal attention and customer satisfaction. VERY MUCH A FAMILY CONCERN.
