We are one of the leading independent garages in Dorset and Hampshire. With state of the art facilities and fully qualified mechanics you can be confident your car will be handled with the utmost care.
ABOUT USWe will be staying open with a skeleton staff to continue to MOT, service and repair your vehicles, and of course see to any breakdowns that arrive. We want to keep you on the road for your essential journeys. #inittogether
Whilst the government has given a 6-month holiday on all MOTs it is still a legal requirement that you ensure that your car is roadworthy, and safe. The Government states that you, as a car owner are expected to keep your car in a roadworthy condition and they have issued a list of relevant checks that SHOULD be carried out by car owner’s to ensure their vehicles are roadworthy. If they are not you could face a £2,500 fine, and or lose your licence. If you are taking advantage of this extension, please check the Government website to familiarise yourself with the requirements.
We use seat covers, floor mats and steering wheel covers on every car whether there’s a virus or not, we are also using antibacterial wipes to wipe down the gearstick, door handles, keys, and any areas of contact within your vehicle. We also run an antibacterial aerosol through your ventilation system as part of our full service, or this can be done at request for any other booking.
Due to the social distancing please be aware when visiting the garage that:
We find ourselves in weird times. We have seen some industries come to a standstill whilst others work hard to keep our communities going. Many of us are having to live differently and abide by the strict restrictions put in place to help preserve lives during the Covid-19 crisis.
This means that we are only to travel for essential journeys, such as travelling to work if you are a key worker or to collect groceries as little as possible. For some who are in complete isolation, it may mean not being able to leave the house at all! So your once frequently used car or van is now sat on the driveway or parked outside your home, hardly being used and this can cause a few potential issues depending on the type of vehicle you have.
We wanted to offer some helpful advice on staying safe and how to ensure that your car keeps running well despite being seldom used, to avoid costly bills getting things fixed when the lockdown due to coronavirus eventually comes to an end.
You may not think that a garage should be focused on cleanliness. You might be used to seeing mechanics in greasy overalls and with dirty hands walking around, floors that haven’t been swept in a while and every bit of equipment you can think of lying across the place or covered in oil.
The recent coronavirus outbreak has taught us that maintaining clean surfaces is important, even in a place like Queens Park Garage. Even without this global threat, however, it’s essential to choose a garage that takes its hygiene responsibilities seriously.
The Government announced recently that it was bringing forward it’s ban on petrol and diesel cars to 2035. While this may seem a little way off at the moment, we’ve had a few customers at Queens Park Garage asking about the implications.
Get to know the team of highly skilled technicians who will be looking after your vehicle.
You can leave your car with us or wait in our comfortable reception with free wi-fi, free refreshments as well as viewing panel and CCTV so you can watch us while we work on your car.
