Why D&M
Fifty years of looking after West Kirby’s cars
Still a family business
David Hughes-Jones started D&M at nineteen. His sons Joe and Tom joined in 2009 and 2011, and the three of them still run it — you are dealing with the owners, not a call centre.
The MOT station in West Kirby
The only MOT testing station in West Kirby — and in Hoylake we test vans (class 7), minibuses (class 5) and motorhomes as well as cars.
Your price before you book
Put your registration in and you see what the work costs on your own car, at the branch you choose. Nothing is taken online — you pay at the garage.
Held to a code of practice
Accredited by The Motor Ombudsman to the Motor Industry Code of Practice for Service and Repair — and if a dispute ever can't be settled with us, the Ombudsman is there to look at it independently.
