Should you wish to opt-in, we offer our vehicle exercise programme, your car will be stared and run on a regular basis, therefore keeping it 'ready to go' for those moments when you want to use and enjoy it.

Access is available during working hours, Monday to Friday and by appointment only at weekends. Should you wish to temporally extract and use the car at any time during its storage period then a minimum of 48 hours notice is required before collection. The car will be prepared before extraction and then methodically checked in on its return.
