    2. You can pay for Your Booking by using credit or debit cards and any other methods as indicated on the Site from time to time, and will have to tell Us Your preferred payment method when You submit Your Booking to Us. More details about payment methods are set out in the Help Centre section of the Site.
    3. Depending on Your payment method, You may be directed to a payment gateway e.g. Stripe and review the total amount payable for Your Booking before clicking ‘Confirm’ to authorise the payment and place Your Booking (once this has been completed, You’ll return to the Site (as applicable)).
    4. You confirm to Us that the payment card You use is Yours or that You have been specifically authorised to use it to purchase Your Booking.
    5. By placing a Booking, You authorise Us to charge Your payment card on completion of the Services for the full purchase price and we are entitled to rely on placing a Booking as an instruction to Us to take Your payment(s). Full payment for your the Services is due on completion of the Services. If we are unable to take payment from your payment card, we may have to charge you additional costs to cover our expenses incurred in recovering the unpaid amounts owed to us. This may include interest at the rate of 4% per annum and the cost of debt collection agencies.
    6. Once You’ve placed a Booking, we’ll send You an email to acknowledge that we’ve received it and are reviewing it but this doesn’t mean that we’ve accepted Your Booking just yet. Your Booking won’t be approved and a contract of sale won’t be formed between Us until we have reviewed Your Booking, verified your payment method and provided You with confirmation of Your Booking by email (let’s refer to an accepted Booking as our “Contract”).
    7. If we are unable to accept Your Booking, perhaps because the Services You’ve requested aren’t available or because Your payment method was unsuccessfully verified, we will let You know by email and obviously won’t charge You. However we have to reserve the right to reject Bookings in our sole discretion.

  6. SERVICES PRICING
    1. All Services that we displayed on the Website are priced in Pounds Sterling, inclusive of VAT, unless expressly stated otherwise but are subject to availability.
    2. We do our best to make sure that Services and pricing information are current and complete but won’t be liable for inaccurate or out of date information. It’s possible that, despite our best efforts we may get Services prices wrong from time to time; if we do, we will contact You for Your instructions before we accept Your Booking and process Your payment.
    3. We may update our Services prices and charges from time to time but these changes won’t affect any existing Contracts.
    4. All quotations are valid for 30 days from the date of issue, unless they include a specific promotional offer which has an earlier expiry date.

    1. We will try wherever possible to collect Your car at the time and collection address as specified in the Booking confirmation, unless otherwise agreed with You in writing (“Pick Up Point”).
    2. The estimated completion date for the Services is as told to You in Your Booking confirmation, unless changes to Your Booking are necessary (please see Clause 8 below).

If You need to contact Us at any point during the provision of the Services please use the Chat function on the Website or contact Us using the details in Clause 1.2.
    3. If your car is considered to be roadworthy, we will try wherever possible to provide a driver to deliver Your car back to You at the time and delivery address as specified in the Booking confirmation, unless otherwise agreed with You in writing (“Drop Off Point”). However, if a defect is discovered by our Services which means Your car is not safe to drive, you will need to arrange for collection. We can provide a pick-up truck service to deliver Your car to a point of your choosing but this cost will need to be borne by You and payment made in advance, as agreed between us.
    4. We will remind you either via the Website and/or by sending you a text message to your registered device 2 hours before we pick up and drop off your car.
    5. If You are not at the Pick Up Point, and if we are unable to contact You after repeated attempts we will cancel Your Booking. If You are not at the Drop Off Point and if we are unable to contact You after repeated attempts, we may have to arrange storage of Your car at a local garage or other storage facilities. If this happens, we will let You know and charge You for the associated storage costs and the delivery costs incurred with re-delivering Your car to You.
    6. Upon collection and delivery of Your car, You will be asked to sign a receipt from one of our appointed drivers, and You may also be asked to provide identification documents (photo driving licence or passport) so we can be sure You are who You say You are.
    7. Any parts fitted to Your car will come with a manufacturer’s guarantee, which apply from the date of the Contract. Please ensure You retain a record of Your Contract and any information we supply to You relating to guarantees for parts supplied.

  8. CHANGES TO YOUR BOOKING
    1. If You wish to make a change to Your Booking please contact Us. We will let You know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let You know about any changes to the price of Your Booking, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of Your requested change and ask You to confirm whether You wish to go ahead with the change. If we cannot make the change or the consequences of making the change are unacceptable to You, You may want to end the Contract (please see Clause 9 for more information).
    2. We may need to change Your Booking:
      • if the information You have provided Us in the Booking is not correct or incomplete;
      • if the chosen garage is no longer available to fulfil Your Booking;
      • to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and
      • where further essential work to Your car has been identified upon inspection or commencement of the Services;
    3. but in any event we will notify You and obtain your approval before any changes (including the price) to Your Booking are made.

However, once we have started the Services (usually one day before the Pick Up day, when we have assigned the garage and driver) You cannot change Your mind, even if the 14 day period is still running. If You cancel after we have started (but not yet completed) the Services, You must pay Us for the Services provided up until the time You tell Us that You have changed Your mind.
    2. If You would like to cancel Your Booking, You can let Us know by using the Chat function on the Site, you may send us the online cancellation form form
