MOT & servicing for Howden.
Eleven miles north of Howden, easy on from junction 37 of the M62. We service plenty of Howden cars and we usually collect rather than asking you to make the drive. The workshop in Holme-upon-Spalding-Moor handles the full range - MOTs, services, repairs, air-con, tuning.
Why Howden customers come to us.
Howden is a historic market town with the Minster at its heart, easy access to the M62 and a population of around 4,500. We see a steady flow of Howden customers - mostly people who've been recommended us by family or neighbours and who'd rather use an independent than the chain workshops in Goole.
The drive up from Howden is straightforward: head north on the A614 through Bubwith and Spaldington, eleven miles, no motorways involved. About 18 minutes door to door if the traffic's behaving. The M62 J37 is barely two miles south of Howden, so getting out of town is as easy as getting in.
Most Howden customers don't actually make the drive - they ask us to collect. The free pick-up service runs across Howden and the surrounding villages (Bubwith, Eastrington, Spaldington, Wressle, Asselby), so you can have an MOT, a service, a re-gas and a set of tyres done without taking the car out of your driveway.
The thing we hear most often from Howden customers: it's the honest pricing and the fact we ring before we do anything. That's just how a workshop should run, but it's apparently not the standard everywhere.
