We have had a great 4 days at Tivoli Marina Vilamoura, Portugal for the Alliance Automotive Group Spring Conference.

We had a fantastic 2023 and this was recognised at the Gala Dinner with us being presented with 2023 Member Of The Year!

This couldn’t have been achieved without the support of everybody at the United Aftermarket Network Ltd, our suppliers, our staff and of course all of our loyal trade and retail customers.

We are proud to be supporting Runham Garage Ltd in the Screwball Rally, raising funds for the James Paget Hospital Charity.

Please read this if you own an older car

Have you heard the news?

From the summer of this year, standard unleaded fuel as we know it will no longer be available at the filling stations.

Current unleaded lfuel is known as E5, which contains 5% ethanol. E5 is being replaced with E10 unleaded meaning it contains 10% ethanol.

This isn’t a problem for most cars but for those that weren’t designed to be compatible with E10 fuel it may cause long term problems.

Because ethanol is a solvent, increasing the level of it in unleaded fuel can cause degradation of rubber and plastic components such as hoses, seals, fuel line and filters.

All cars built from 2011 onwards can safely use E10 fuel but earlier vehicles are vulnerable to damage.

For older cars we recommend using Lucas Oil Products UK Safeguard Enthanol Fuel Conditioner every fill up to prevent degradation and future breakdowns.

This is available to buy on our website in 155ml and 473ml bottles.

155ml of Safeguard treats over 90 litres of fuel.

COVID-19 UPDATE

As we head into a 4 week lockdown throughout November we would like to confirm that we will be open as usual.

During these times we have decided not to re- open on Saturdays as yet so our current ‘normal’ opening hours are:-

Monday to Friday 8am - 5:30pm

We urge everybody to wear a mask when entering the shop. Those that have chosen not to wear a mask will be served outside from the main warehouse goods in/out entrance.

Social distancing is in full operation and we have been operating a ‘one out, one in’ policy since the shop has reopened. Please adhere to this and wait outside if a customer is already in the shop.

As it gets wetter and colder, we understand that queuing outside isn’t much fun so we would like to make you aware that you can place your order or get a quote without coming into the shop by the following means:-
