Our story

more than 50 years on Claybank Road

Everyday cars and classics, repaired by the same family business since 1970.

E.R.B. Motors has been family-run since 1970. In that time the cars have changed a great deal, from the classics we still restore to the modern cars that come in after a bump in a car park.

What hasn’t changed is how we work: we look properly at the damage, explain what it needs, and do the repair in our own fully equipped workshop, combining traditional skills with modern techniques.

Got a car that needs looking at? Send a few photos and we’ll tell you what it needs, or call and talk it through.

Since: 1970
Workshop: Claybank Road, PO3
Open: Mon–Fri, 8am–5pm

Photos first
Most repairs start with a few photos from your phone, so you know what’s involved before you bring the car in.
Explained before we start
We tell you what needs repairing, what needs replacing and why, and confirm the price once we’ve seen the car.
Insurance or private
We work with insurers on the paperwork and approvals, and many customers simply pay privately.
Everyday cars and classics
The same workshop puts right a car park dent and restores a Jaguar XK150.
