Drivers in Dorchester now have a new option for trusted vehicle care, as Elite Garages has opened its 19th branch in the town. The family-run company, which has been serving motorists for more than 60 years, offers a wide range of services including MOTs, tyres, servicing and general mechanical repairs.
The new site, based at Unit 4 Great Western Road, Dorchester, DT1 1RD, is equipped with the latest diagnostic technology and features a modern customer reception area with ample on-site parking. A team of skilled technicians is on hand to provide the high-quality service Elite Garages has become known for across the South of England.
With three generations of the same family in the business, Elite Garages has grown steadily while holding firm to its founding values of trust, reliability and exceptional customer care. The new Dorchester branch continues that tradition, adding to the company’s expanding network of workshops.
From brakes and clutches to diagnostics and exhausts, the branch offers servicing for all makes and models. Tyres are also a key focus, with thousands in stock to suit everything from budget-conscious drivers to high-performance vehicles. Customers can also browse and reserve tyres online for extra convenience.
Elite Garages is also proud to be part of the Bosch Car Service network, meaning customers benefit from industry-leading diagnostic equipment, training and standards.
Melvin Sutton, Area Manager for the new Dorchester site, said: “Dorchester is a fantastic community and we’re delighted to be opening here. The branch is fully equipped with Bosch diagnostic equipment and staffed by a brilliant team who are ready to support local motorists. Our aim is simple: to provide honest, affordable and reliable service that people can trust.”
Managing Director Richard Whittemore added: “This opening marks another proud milestone for our family business. The welcome from the Dorchester community has been extremely positive, with customers already praising our friendly team and competitive prices. For us, combining professionalism with a personal touch has always been key, and I’m confident this new branch will continue that tradition.”
