Affirmed

“The company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As a result, the directors have continued to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.”

Significant events

• “On Sunday the 9th February 2025 a major fire was experienced at our Head Office premises at the Bridge of Don Aberdeen. The consequence of the fire was the total destuction of our workshop facilities along with severe collateral damage to our MOT facilities resulting in the demolition of both units. Fortunately, the Head Office Admin facilities and Parts department were largely unaffected other than temporary utility service issues. Emergency initiatives were implemented whereby a temporary workshop was arranged, commisisoned and fully operational by the first week in March 2025 ensuring continuity of service to our customers without any signiifcant disruption to them or our diligent staff. Whilst there was signifciant damage to both vehicles within the workshop and the workshop itself our insurance cover provides adequate cover to address the value of the loss until normal operational activities are resumed at Bridge of Don. Our plan is to return workshop and MOT trading activities to the Bridge of Don by the end of 2025 with full normality early in 2026 with performance being down on this current year by an insignificant amount. The positive achievements accumulating from this crisis is due to the outstanding teamwork of all members of staff to retain continuity of service to it's customers.”

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
