Busy preparing vehicles for this Autumn/Winter! The reason not many vehicles are listed is because prior to listings being live online all purchases are comprehensively serviced, checked and tested with no shortcuts! If a timing belt water pump kit is overdue or close to schedule it is replaced as standard procedure,if a 4X4 Haldex service is due the filters and fluid are replaced. You are best to keep an eye on the website as no vehicle is listed before it is fully checked and ready for resale. Lots of new VAG Stock is arriving every Week and being meticulously prepared.

It has been yet another challenging Year and my heart goes out to all of those people struggling in the World particularly those countries encountering conflict.
There has been a mix of challenges in the motor industry and in my personal life with elderly parents mainly, however very exciting and emotionally rewarding since going full time whilst ratcheting up the Norfolk Motoring brand…. learning and understanding the latest automotive cutting edge technical breakthroughs with a blend of classic car restorations.
Having worked hard the past 37 Years for somebody else over the festive season I have decided to close this Year from Saturday 16th December and reopen on Tuesday 2nd January to enable me to spend precious time with close family and the ones I love.
I would like to wish you [...]

Stop Start / Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) Car Batteries
A Run on BMW & Mini Batteries (A559) Terminal 30 Power Supply- 24th February 2021

- Comments Off on Stop Start / Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) Car Batteries
The stop/start system was developed to help reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, and contribute to a safer environment.
A stop/start system shuts off your vehicle while stationary and can be restarted once the driver puts pressure on the accelerator or clutch. By shutting the engine off after about 1.5 seconds and prolonging this until it is safe to drive off, this technology is designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by 5-10%. This is one of the ways how vehicle manufactures reduce the (g/km) grams per kilometre using the stop/start to reduce a petrol or diesel engine burns fuel, carbon dioxide (CO2) produced
However, vehicles with start-stop technology place a greater demand on a vehicle’s battery – and this is where the AGM battery stands head and shoulders above the more conventional acid flooded lead battery.
I have had a run of these AGM batteries particularly on the BMW and Mini range, where [...]

Timing Belts Replaced When Required – With OE Spec, VW & Gates -in Stock Ready For New Arrivals
Why does my cambelt need to be changed?- 26th September 2020

- Comments Off on Timing Belts Replaced When Required – With OE Spec, VW & Gates -in Stock Ready For New Arrivals
Why does my cambelt need to be changed?
The cam belt timing belt kit is one of the hardest working parts in your engine, driving major parts of the engine and keeping everything synchronised. Changing it prevents snaps, cracks and tears which in turn minimise the risk of major engine damage.
What happens if it’s not changed?
The belt can go slack, making it snap or jump. This can cause severe damage to the engine. Your car will break down and could be very expensive to repair.
We strip down the relevant parts of the engine and renew the cam belt and cam belt tensioner. Then we reassemble the engine and road test your car on all vehicles supplied where the cam belt kit is due.
How often does it need to be changed?
4 – 10 Years subject to vehicle details – This may need to be changed sooner for [...]

- Comments Off on RARE Audi MK1 3.2 Manual Transmission – Full Audi History – Same One Owner From New
Until the TT came along in 1998, Audi was perceived as one of the world’s most conservative car makers. Then this Bauhaus-inspired machine arrived and suddenly the Ingolstadt brand was hot property. There really was nothing else like the TT, and aside from the Peugeot RCZ, there still isn’t. But the TT isn’t just a pretty (or at least distinctive) face; it’s a pretty good drive too, and this rare 6 speed manual transmission V6 250 BHP is fast and sounds superb.
With its standard four-wheel drive these MK1 TT’S still looks sharp, there’s not much that competes with the TT within the price range and the correct model MK1 TT will only increase in value if cared for.
I have sourced this Rare 6 speed manual one owner from new vehicle with full Audi service history having covered a genuine 87,000 miles in phantom black which will be available to purchase soon.
As per [...]
