The owner’s story
From Apprentice To Owner
Sam’s journey began at just 14 years old when he started work experience at Grange Moor Garage one day per week. That progressed into additional workshop time before he undertook a Level 3 NVQ apprenticeship in Light Vehicle Repair & Maintenance under the guidance of founder Robert Gunn.
Following his apprenticeship, Sam successfully completed the Bosch Diagnostic Technician Programme before progressing to the prestigious Bosch Master Technician qualification — the highest Bosch awards. Further qualifications followed in hybrid and electric vehicle repair.
When Robert retired, Sam took over the business he’d grown up in — and continues to invest heavily in training, technology and workshop equipment so customers receive dealer-level expertise with independent garage service.
