We are a friendly country garage that operates super efficiently and without frills (No aluminium and glass!), to offer a premium service at a more affordable cost. Many owners of classic cars especially those with a high value have concerns about the MOT test and the way their car may be treated.
We are all enthusiast at Greenway Garage and take particular care of the rare and unusual and owners are entitled, and welcome, to watch the test being done and to speak to the tester before hand, so that any specific matter of concern regarding their pride and joy can be discussed.Our workshop is very well equipped, particularly in terms of diagnostic equipment, and we are able to do some repairs that other companies may struggle with.

Services
We have the latest diagnostic equipment and fit only quality parts including OE parts for cars still under manufactures warranty. We are able to do major repairs including engine re-builds, exhaust systems and tyres. We have special deals with suppliers so, for instance, we are able to offer premium tyres at a lower mid-range price.
If you want to get the best service out of a new or nearly new car, this is our advise, based on real world problems we encounter everyday in the workshop. Fill up with quality fuel. The savings of buying cheap petrol with less modern additives is not worth the risk and the potential savings for average mileage drivers is minimal as there is some indication that premium fuel provides better mpg.
We are classic car enthusiasts and specialise in MOTing classic cars and have a greater understanding of their quirks and idiosyncrasies than most garages. Many owners drive from far to make use of the this service. We are also happy to do a general check-over of any car even if it does not, under government legislation, require an MOT.
It is not surprising that classic cars have become so mainstream when I can remember that messing around with old cars was the prerogative of odd old men in sheds. Modern cars have become so anodyne and soulless that the thrill of driving or the excitement of planning a road trip has been lost.
I would not recommend buying a classic car as an investment, although over the period 2013 -2016 many classic cars doubled in value and they turned out to be the best investment anyone could make, especially when my bank was offering 0.01% on my savings!There is lots to be said for opening up the garage on a crisp spring morning and giving your pride-and-joy a wipe over before going for a blast down country roads.

New to the area and discovered this local garage. Very glad we did!
Halfords failed girlfriends car Mot on a spring issue and then proceeded to try and con her of £600+. Normally work is carried out by ourselves at home but due to work limitations we didn't have time. Greenway were contacted and had the job done quickly and at a more realistic cost of around £90!
As such I decided to return with one of my own vehicles for MOT. I'm not a fan of leaving this car with garages as I've had issues before with the car needing to be 'road tested'. Greenway is the first place I've actually trusted enough

A fantastic team at Greenway Garage. I was lucky to find a team of reliable, skilled and dedicated mechanics to take care of the needs of my fifty year old Morris Minor. All the staff are friendly, enthusiastic and share a genuine appreciation of classic vehicles. Amongst other things, they have overhauled the brakes, replaced a 1098 gearbox and rewired the rear indicators. I have been very happy with all the work carried out and the service I have received. I can highly recommend them.

Worst garage I have ever been a customer at. Had a problem with my car ( radiator hose was leaking ). Took Them 3 times to fix and me £400 which is a ridiculous amount. in the end got my mate to fix it himself costing me an extra £20 for buying the hose. rang the garage up and asked for a refund as the job wasn't complete and was told to F*** off.

I always have a good experience here. They seem to be decent people, with some very special cars for sale. The friendly repair team always do their best to help; and have often helped with those small, but irritating tasks - such as fitting a lightbulb, or checking tyre pressures, without even charging. Great service! Cheers guys!
