Hilton Smythe welcomes to the market West Herts Customs and Hardings ARC, which was established in 2009 by our client, who is now looking to retire.

The business is split into two, with Hardings ARC handling all crash repairs and West Herts Customs being well established in the customisation, modification and restoration of vehicles.

Hardings ARC is a Renault & Dacia main repair centre, is Nissan approved and a Subaru specialist and repairs vehicles from across the South East of England and beyond. Hardings ARC aims to get vehicles back on the road with minimum hassle and inconvenience, offering arrangement of a replacement vehicle if the accident is not the drivers fault, liaison with your insurance company and a 3 Year warranty on all repairs.

West Herts Customs are proud to offer their customers a high quality bodyshop where every job, no matter how big or small is carried out to the highest of standards by their small but dedicated team of highly trained professionals.

With many years of experience in the automotive industry and the UK's custom and modifying scene, West Herts Customs are happy to share their knowledge and experience with their customers. They offer their customers a high quality alternative to a volume bodyshop where their quality of workmanship is more important than the number of jobs carried out. A place where customers are happy to leave their car and have every confidence that the job required is being done to the highest of standards, carried out right first time, every time. Their aim is to exceed customer expectations.

Due to this ethos their are many satisfied and repeat customers giving 5* Facebook and Google reviews across the board. The business is being sold with two websites being www.westhertscustoms.co.uk and www.hardingsarc.co.uk

There could be improvements to the business by utilising the first floor office space for either more beneficial use for the business or subletting the office space.

Hilton Smythe highly advise early viewing to avoid disappointment.
