Press Release – NEEPSEND GARAGE BOSS F...

February 2015

Martin Dawson (front), the owner of STM Automotive, and Workshop Manager Andy Grayson in the newly completed MoT facility.

Sheffield garage owner Martin Dawson was all set to self-build an extension to his Neepsend garage in 2012 – but thieves had other ideas.  They stole the extension.

Now, more than two years after originally planned, the facility has finally opened.

Mr Dawson owns STM Automotive in Parkwood Road, and the extension was designed to create more space for the growing business – and to house a brand new, state-of-the-art MoT facility that would be one of the most sophisticated in the North.

In addition to servicing, repairs, diagnostics and body painting, STM Automotive specialises in the restoration of classic cars – and the sort of work which other garages find difficult, time-consuming or expensive.

It also carries out a lot of subcontracted work from garages around South Yorkshire, which is why more space was needed – but the MoT facility represented a heavy investment in a completely new area of operations.

“We intended to do as much of the building work ourselves as possible,” said Mr Dawson. “We had more than £20,000-worth of specialist steels supplied and they were cut to shape, prepared and ready to go in – when the whole lot was stolen, including the wagon that delivered them.”But Mr Dawson was not beaten – he ordered new steels, enhanced site security – and even slept in a caravan on the site for six months to ensure that the replacement materials weren’tstolen before they were installed in the building.

After a lengthy delay, the brand new MoT bay finally opened this month (February).  It is equipped with the latest computerised equipment from high-end British manufacturer Tecalemit and is so efficient that the entire operation can be run by a single fitter.

“It’s amazing technology and it makes MoT work very fast, and very accurate,” said Mr Dawson.  “Thanks to the thieves, it took over two years from placing the order to having the kit installed, but it was worth it in the end to have one of Yorkshire’s most up-to-date MoT facilities.”

Tecalemit / Unipart Automotive

July 2014

By Philip Cledwyn, Tecalemit Sales and Marketing Director

As you’ll be aware Unipart Automotive has gone into Administration and was a distributor of Tecalemit equipment.  This short paper explains briefly how that impacts on Tecalemit.

It hopefully goes without saying that I and all my colleagues at Tecalemit have personal friends and acquaintances at Unipart Automotive, who have lost their jobs, had fundamental and unsought changes to their working lives, or whose future is uncertain, and we feel very much for them at this time.

However, the impact on Tecalemit itself, and Tecalemit customers, is limited.  Here’s the position:

Financial

The financial impact isn’t a consideration – we were aware of the problems, stopped supplying Unipart Automotive some time ago, and had assertively reduced their credit position with us.  When it has all shaken out, yes, we’ll be owed some money, but the amount involved is annoying rather than critical.

Interruption to supply

There’s no interruption to supply of Tecalemit equipment  – customers can deal with any one of our distributors or should they need further technical advice they can talk to a Tecalemit sales person, call us or email us (01752 219111 /sales@tecalemit.co.uk) and we’ll be delighted to help.

Our analysis of the situation

The final point I would make is that there has been an excess of resellers for some time which no market sector could sustain in perpetuity.

I wouldn’t have wished this on Unipart Automotive and feel greatly for the friends who worked for the company and whose position is now difficult; but purely from a business perspective we believe it will restore vigour and strength to the market and may even be the saving of some other companies.

There will doubtless be some froth and turbulence in the market for a while but then it should settle down with greater stability than before.

The loss of a reseller is administratively inconvenient but the fact is that the relationship with Unipart Automotive was already over and the market is now undergoing changes to accommodate the new situation.

I regret the impact on the Unipart Automotive employees but some kind of substantive shake up in the market was inevitable.  It would be preferable to achieve that through strategy and corporate activity rather than in this brutal way, but change had to come.
