Car servicing for Málaga at a workshop 130 km away: put like that, it doesn't make much sense, and we won't pretend otherwise. For routine maintenance on an everyday car, a trusted garage in Teatinos, El Palo or Churriana is the obvious choice.
There are times when it does add up. The first is when the service comes alongside other work. If you're bringing the car down for an exhaust, a remap or lowering, we can do the oil, filters and a general check in the same visit and save you a separate trip to the garage.
The second is when the car isn't one just anyone wants to touch. A Porsche with the M96 engine, a Range Rover on air suspension, an AMG or a classic that needs careful handling all want someone who knows them. Plenty of general garages would rather not get involved, or stick to the oil change without looking any further.
The third is a tuned car. If it's running a map, a different turbo or an uprated clutch, the service should take that into account: the right oil, plugs in good order and a proper look at whatever the tuning puts under strain. Tell us about yours and we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth the drive.

Driving route to the workshop
If you're coming from Málaga
It's about 130 km, roughly an hour and 40 minutes by car. The sensible approach is to combine the service with other work in one visit, down the AP-7 or A-7 to San Roque and into La Línea. If you'd rather not make the trip, collection and delivery is possible, priced on request depending on where you are.

Frequently asked questions
Is it worth coming from Málaga just for a service?
Usually not. If your car is an everyday model and needs nothing else, a garage in Málaga is the better option. It's worth it when combined with other work or when your car needs someone who knows it.
Will servicing with you affect my manufacturer warranty?
As general information, EU rules let you have the car serviced at an independent garage without losing the manufacturer's warranty, provided the schedule is followed and parts of matching quality are used. We stamp the service book too.
Do you service tuned cars?
Yes, and that's where it makes the most sense. We know which parts take the strain from a map or a bigger turbo, and we check them.
How much is a service?
It depends on the car and what's due. Send us the model, engine and mileage and we quote after seeing the details.
