Award Winning Car & Van Servicing in Colchester
With the lifting of block exemption in 2003 vehicle owners, car or commercial can choose who services and maintains their vehicles without invalidating their warranty. This means that your service at Shaikly Motor Company will provide you with everything that you’d get from the main dealer including protecting your warranty.Â
Manufacturer servicing follows the exact requirements set by your vehicle’s brand, ensuring all necessary checks and replacements are carried out at the correct intervals. Our team will verify your service history and advise on the correct manufacturer service for your car.
Under Block Exemption regulations, servicing at an independent garage does not void your warranty. We follow manufacturer specifications using approved parts, keeping your warranty intact.
The service required will depend on the mileage and service history of your vehicle.
Warranty-Safe Servicing – We follow manufacturer schedules and use approved parts.
Expert Technicians – Highly trained professionals with experience across all makes and models.
Genuine & OEM Parts – We use high-quality parts to maintain vehicle integrity.
Transparent Pricing – No hidden costs, just clear and competitive rates.
Better Value Than Dealerships – The same high standards, without the premium price.
We start by collecting key details — your vehicle’s make, model, age (registration), mileage, and service history. This helps us ensure we’re quoting accurately based on your car’s specific needs.
Using your vehicle data, we consult the official manufacturer service schedule and check the recommended service intervals. From there, we determine exactly what work is due and which parts are required.
If your vehicle is still under manufacturer warranty, we’ll always quote using genuine manufacturer parts — unless you specifically ask us not to.
If your vehicle is out of warranty, we may offer the option of using high-quality OEM parts, which provide excellent value without compromising quality.
Once everything is confirmed, we’ll send you a detailed, transparent quote outlining the service items, parts used, and total cost — with no hidden extras.
Once you’ve approved the quote, we’ll schedule your service at a time that suits you.
If we spot anything additional during your service, we’ll send you a full estimate with photo evidence before carrying out any extra work. Nothing is done without your clear approval.
If you have any questions or would like to book your car or van in for any service, MOT, tyre, diagnostics or repair work – feel free to call us or email us

How We Have Helped Others Just Like You…
Today I visited Shaiklys for some advice on managing my rather ancient car with strange noises. They were exceptionally kind and helpful, I feel incredibly fortunate to have them as our local garage, we are blessed.
Absolutely brilliant service. So competitive on price with quality to match. Access to all Audi service notes just as if you were at main dealer. Will not bother with Audi now as Shaikly were fantastic. Dan was amazing and so helpful.
Booked in for a battery draining test. Very fair pricing, informative & really good communication. Would definitely use again. Thanks!
I have used Shaikly motor services for over 25 years on many different cars. A great reliable and knowledgeable company that offers great quality service at a reasonable price.
I was especially impressed by the professional yet warm personal service I received from the moment I made the appointment over the phone to when I picked up my car. In a time when genuine customer care is becoming increasingly rare, I truly appreciate your commitment to maintaining such high
Fantastic service from all the staff. Always friendly..the best moter company by far.
