“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The Company is currently in the process of re-branding as Aston Autopark and plans to introduce a 2nd Franchise.”
- “The Company has launched a 'We Buy Local Cars' operation and intends to develop an adjacent vacant site into a purchasing and disposal hub.”
- “The option for B M A Kay to repurchase land transferred to the Company in June 2019 remains in place for another year as at 30 June 2025.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
