Vehicle Service and MOT

At Northern Motors our customers come first.

So Looking forward we offer a FREE COLLECTION AND DELIVERY service from home or work. We cover multiple areas including Watford, Harrow, Ruislip, Hayes, Hendon, St. Albans, Hemel and many others.

Please Just ask when you book your appointment.

With the new laws on Air Conditioning, here at Northern Motors for the benefit of our customers, we have the latest equipment for the up keep of your cars. As of the 1st January 2013 the government guidelines stated that all Manufacturer's for all new model vehicles, MUST come away from the known R134A gas and use R1234YF gas, so we have the latest Air Conditioning machine and gas for this, so if in the event that your new car, whether it be a Vauxhall or any other make, we can re-gas and service your system, with our fully trained staff.

We all spend far too much of our time worrying about how we can possibly make our money go just that little bit further.

On the face of it, having your car serviced by Northern Motors, when you could take it to a smaller garage, is just one more pressure on your budget.

So how can we make sure that the money you spend is worth every penny?

1.   A Full Manufacturer Service History.
If you fail to have your car serviced at all, it’s value on resale is dramatically reduced. How much less would you expect to pay for a car without a service history? A manufacturer service history will save you significantly more money than the possible difference in cost if you go to a reputable non-franchised repairer.

Don’t forget to point that out to us when you change your car! And remember, we only use genuine parts, guaranteed by our manufacturers and designed specifically by them for your car

2. Free Access to Safety Related Recalls.
We are required by law to ensure that any vehicle which comes to us under our franchise is checked to see if there is any safety related recall work needed – and we will carry out that work in nearly every case free of charge. Many vehicles fail to have safety related work carried out purely because the owner is not aware that it is needed. Often a completely reputable non- franchise dealer will spot the work, carry it out, and make a charge purely because they are not aware of the recall.

Northern Motors Vauxhall are the only company locally who not only know about any relevant recalls, but also can carry out this work on your car free of charge.

3. Fully Trained Technicians.
All our technicians are trained to the standards required by our manufacturers, and are aware, through training and constantly working on the vehicles, of precisely what to look for and how most economically to carry out the work. Why not ask for a Totally FREEVisual Health Check to be carried out on your car. We should carry out just such an inspection every time you bring the car to us – so don’t be shy to ask.

4. Labour Rates.
Whilst it is true that often Main Dealer hourly labour rate is higher than non- franchise workshops, in most cases the actual time charged is significantly less, so the actual cost is lower.

5. Same Day Parts DeliveryService.

Due to a unique delivery process to Vauxhall, if you now bring  your car to us and allow us to diagnose the fault before midday we have access to over 22,000 parts for same day delivery. We will normally be able to get your car back on the road on the same day!

6. And Finally………… Not only do all the above reasons prove that it is better value to come to Northern Motors to have your car serviced, but we also have a range of products such as Budget plans and Masterfit Service Club, which allow you to save a small amount a month to either fully or partially cover the costs of running your car So, as you can see – it really does make sense to have your car serviced by Northern Motors!
