In the workshop
Three ramps. One waiting list.
Servicing and MOT slots usually go within the week. Longer builds are booked in properly, with a written plan and a date you can hold us to.
Why choose us
Why people bring cars here
Coldstart started in 2011 in one unit off Gosford Street with a ramp, a toolbox and a kettle. We are four units along now, with three ramps and the same kettle.

In their own words
What customers say
"Two garages told me it needed a new gearbox. Coldstart found a sensor and a chewed earth strap, showed me the photographs, and charged me an hour of diagnostics."
"They had the car for eleven weeks and I got pictures every Friday. No chasing, no surprises on the invoice, and it drives better than it ever has."
"Booked it in for a service and an MOT expecting the usual list of extras. They found one worn bush, quoted it, and left the rest alone. Refreshing, honestly."
