With online and telephone helpdesks being readily available, technicians will have access to technical information on any marque and model quickly and from a reliable database that sees over 2,500 repair details added per week.

Martin Gray, UK chief executive officer at ECP said: “We’re delighted to build on our commitment to the independent garage.

“Technology continues to evolve, with alternatively-fuelled vehicles and connected technology all making their way into the garage it is important that the industry is in a position to respond.”
