Fix Auto UK Welcomes Seasoned Repairer to the Network and Raises Its Flag in Leighton Buzzard

Safeguarding, futureproofing and taking their business to another level are three of the main reasons why the Holt family have turned to Fix Auto UK and joined the network.

After nearly four decades as operating as Leighton Coachworks, the Bedfordshire-based repair centre has now transitioned into Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard and in doing so, further strengthens the organisation’s proposition in the region.

Formed by the late Jeremy Holt “Jess” and his wife Valerie during the 1980’s, the 6,500 sq ft repair centre, which has a rich history in serving insurance companies, is now overseen by Val and General Manager Paul Muckleston.

A team of 12 and a super-efficient workflow that ensures a repair capacity of 125 vehicles a month.

Commenting on their decision to join the network, Paul said: “The business has stood alone serving the insurance sector for many years but we’ve made a move to join the Fix Auto Franchise in order to safeguard our future.

“The team has an enviable reputation for repairing cars to the highest specification, as efficiently as possible and our circumstances have allowed us to, once again, level up the business. With this change we’ll be fulfilling our true potential with access to the unique and valuable business practice of sharing best practice, that comes with joining the Fix Auto UK network.

Val added: “Our success so far stands as a great legacy for what my husband Jess started all those years ago. However, I know we can’t stand still so uniting with fellow repairers as part of the Fix Family will allow us to continue to operate at the highest level for many more years to come. Joining the network is really an exciting new chapter for us.”

Ian Pugh, Managing Director for Fix Auto UK, commented: “Having strength in depth is fundamental not only to the network, but our continual growth. We have a business that has been operating as a single entity for nearly 40 years, that speaks volumes for the level of service Val, Paul and their team are able to provide.”
