Minerva Bath Opens New Mot Centre in Bathford

Less than a year since Minerva Bath opened its premium car dealership for business, the company has now expanded to add a dedicated MOT centre at its Box Road, Bathford premises.

Owners Jim Currant and John Lyddy, who have more than 70 years experience in the car business between them, decided to extend and open its own dedicated MOT centre to complement its existing after car sales service in response to customer demand.

Joint Managing Director Jim Currant, who began his career in the industry as an apprentice technician and is a fully qualified vehicle engineer said;  “Since we opened in July last year we have done extremely well in terms of attracting interest and generating car sales however, as our customers gradually begin to return to us for servicing and  maintenance it seemed a natural progression for us to open our own MOT centre at our site rather than having to send them elsewhere. 

“It means we can offer a one-stop-shop, hassle free service to our clients from buying a car and looking after it year on year.  It is also really important to us that we maintain our quality standards and this way we can ensure good value and quality in one.”

To celebrate the opening of its new MOT centre, Minerva Bath is hosting a free event “Beyond the driving seat”  to introduce car drivers to the basics of car maintenance such as how to change a tyre, check air pressure and oil levels and even how to top up your windscreen washer. The event will take place on
