Since the day we opened, drivers have counted on us for outstanding service, an exciting product range, and real value you can feel the moment you walk in.

Today, our journey continues across two vibrant locations- The Car Shop, Carrickfergus and Motorcraft Centre- Newtownabbey where our team's live and breathe everything on wheels. We’re devoted to keeping your vehicle performing at its best, offering dynamic support, genuine enthusiasm, and specialist knowledge you won’t find anywhere else.

Whether you're a weekend tinkerer, everyday driver, or devoted car enthusiast, we’re here to deliver rapid service, expert guidance, and the confidence to take on any motoring challenge.

Services

We make every visit effortless. Our branches offer free customer parking and accept all major credit cards—and yes, we still take cash!

Both of our stores crank out road-ready number plates in just minutes—you wait, we deliver, no messing about. Need wiper blades? We’ll fit them for free before you’ve even blinked. Battery giving you grief? We’ll test it on the spot and get you powered up again. Fast. Fierce. And built for drivers who don’t have time for nonsense—just top-tier service, done right.

Products

We’re packed to the roof with a huge range of car accessories and pro-grade tools from industry giants like Draper and Sealey—only the good stuff makes it onto our shelves. Add in an unbeatable lineup of premium detailing products, including top-tier Japanese brands, and you’ve got everything you need to keep your ride looking sharp and running strong. From big-name leaders to the everyday essentials, we stock the gear that keeps your vehicle in peak condition.

Prices

All prices you see—online and in store—already include VAT, nice and simple. We’re always running special offers and hot deals, but not all of them make it onto the website. Want the latest bargain?
