Business Description
Advent Business Sales is pleased to have been instructed to offer to the market this very well established and profitable body shop garage.

The garage, which was founded by our client 11 years ago, is now being offered for sale to enable him to fulfil his lifetime ambition to travel and see the world.

The business is well known as an expert repairer of general bodywork damage, but they also do ‘smart repairs’ where they make new interior trim panels, re-instate the pattern of cigarette burns in fabric seats, do plastic welding to repair spoilers or bumpers and restore alloy wheels to the original factory finish. These are very cost effective ways of restoring the vehicle without the need of expensive and sometimes difficult to find spares.

The garage has an excellent local reputation with a great deal of work coming from referrals from previously satisfied customers.

Approximately 20% of turnover relates to insurance work, 60% is retail and 20% is from local account customers such as Hertz, Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari, where work has to
be of a high standard commensurate with the marque.

The garage has a fully equipped van to enable them to travel to customers premises to carry out mobile smart repairs.

We area advised that stock at cost is approximately £20,000.
