4 Wheel Alignment
SAVE MONEY WITH A 4- WHEEL ALIGNMENT CHECK
If a car's wheels are mis-aligned it causes excessive wear on the tyres, particularly on the edges. This means that tyres have to be replaced more frequently resulting in increased running costs. Another symptom is that the car will pull to the left or right and, under braking, could become seriously wayward. This means increased handling difficulties and lower safety driving conditions.
Our 4-wheel alignment equipment, the most advanced machine on the market, enables our engineers to check within one minute degree of accuracy how straight a car's wheels are. Each wheel is checked individually and if needed, adjusted so that all four wheels are perfectly positioned to enable the driver to derive maximum driving safety and pleasure.
The process takes just 45 minutes and most models of MGs (cars) can be catered for, the only exception being the older, narrow wheel based cars like the T-Series MGs. Tony Hotchkiss, Service Manager comments: "Customers who have already opted for this service are amazed at how even just a slight adjustment can make a big difference in how their car drives and handles. Some are absolutely staggered by just how much wear the edges their tyres have been subjected to. In fact, many customers are now including a 4-wheel alignment check in with their normal service as the slight increase in price could save them literally hundreds of pounds in reduced running costs." So, to save money and drive safely why not book an alignment check today. Contact Tony Hotchkiss at Brown & Gammons Ltd on 01462 490049. Tony can also advise on all aspects of Brown & Gammons first class workshop services including serving, tuning, full & part restorations and competition preparation on all models of MG.
Rover Test Book
With the advent of the new range of MGs - MGF, TF, ZR, ZS, ZT - came computerised engine management systems. This creates a whole new system of fault diagnosing, which is where our state-of-the-art Rover Testbook wins.
The car's ECU is connected to the Testbook computer, which then reads the cars 'log of events'. It then analyses the information, traces back to where the fault original occurred and what caused it and then points the technician to where the problems lies. This eliminates the hours spent trying to diagnose the fault by the more traditional 'trial and error' method. This ultimately saves you, the customer, money which is reflected in your labour bill.
For further information or to book your car in please ring and ask to speak to Tony Hotchkiss. 01462 490049
Restoration Work
Over the past 25 years, we have restored hundreds of MGs from pre-war Triple Ms, through T-Types, MGAs, MGBs, MGCs, Midgets and V8s. We've undertaken complete restorations or just done the bits of the job that you don't want to. This can include body welding, paintwork, panelwork, mechanical work or interior trim. We've put cars back on the road to original specifications or uprated, modified and even improved either the cars mechanics or aesthetics.
Throughout the work, we keep you abreast of developments (and there are normally quite a few) and we can take digital images of different stages of your restoration if required. During the work, you are more than welcome to visit our premises to view the car and its progress and to chat about the work involved (just lets us know beforehand so that we can make sure there is someone available to talk to you).
Displayed here are just some of the cars we have restored throughout our history to give you an idea of just how diverse our work is and the standard to which we comply to. If you want further information, to arrange to book your car in or just to chat about what you have in mind, please ring and ask to talk to Tony Hotchkiss. 01462 490049
