It's not always possible for a client to bring their vehicle to us, especially if we need to adjust or add further modifications for them to be able to drive easily. So, when we need to transport a vehicle to or from our workshop we use a local team who are reliable, fast and friendly! - They're always happy to fit us into their schedule and a great team to deal with - shout out to WAI TOW - Wairarapa Towing and Storage! Thanks for all of your help! 😎

Today we handed back a clients Ford Ranger, with a new Turny Evo swivel base and BEV seat in the front passenger position. To see the smile on a young mans face when he was able to transfer himself from wheelchair to vehicle seat was fantastic. He was grinning from ear to ear and we're so pleased that we could help with this new seat, to make a big impact for this family! This is what it's all about!😄
