Hockley Heath sits on the A3400 Stratford Road at the southern edge of Solihull, where the suburbs give way to open Warwickshire countryside and the Stratford Canal. It's an easy run to our Meriden workshop, and we look after a steady stream of cars from the village.
Hockley Heath has the best of both worlds — village life with the canal and countryside, but quick links to Solihull, the M42 and the motorway network. That makes for a lot of mixed driving, and a lot of cars that benefit from regular, honest attention.
From Hockley Heath, it's a straightforward run up towards Meriden via the local roads and A452, bringing you to Home Farm on Meriden Road (CV7 7SL). It's an easy alternative to the Solihull dealers, with prices to match the convenience.
Mixed driving, mixed demands
A typical Hockley Heath car does a bit of everything — motorway commuting, country lanes, the school run. That variety is actually good for a car in some ways, but it does mean a full range of wear: tyres, brakes, suspension and the rest. A proper service keeps tabs on all of it.
Honest, local, no nonsense
We give Hockley Heath drivers exactly what they want: a clear quote, plain-English explanations, and work done properly the first time. If you've had a quote elsewhere that felt steep, we're happy to give an honest second opinion.
