Officially registered independent workshops are a strong alternative to dealers, with a wide range of services, aftermarket parts and fair prices.
Independent workshops are officially registered, pay taxes and employ professional staff, which is what sets them apart from garage services. They range from small shops to large facilities serving company fleets, and are often founded by former dealership employees.
They cost more than garage services but offer modern equipment, qualified staff and warranties on their work. Their advantages over dealers include:
- A wide range of services, with repair options rather than only part replacement
- The option of aftermarket parts that save the owner money
- More affordable prices without a brand premium
