Leighton Coachworks becomes Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard

Leighton Coachworks rebrands as Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard

Safeguarding, future-proofing and taking their business to another level are three of the main reasons why the Holt family has joined the Fix Auto UK network and rebranded Leighton Coachworks as Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard.

After nearly four decades operating as Leighton Coachworks, the Bedfordshire-based repair centre has transitioned into Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard, further strengthening its proposition in the region.

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

Add to that a team of 12 and a “super-efficient workflow”, and Fix Auto Leighton Buzzard ensures a repair capacity of 125 vehicles a month.

Mucklestone 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.”

Operating at highest level

Holt 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, said: “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.”
