Ben set up business in 2001 in partnership at a garage in west Cumbria, doing vehicle body repairs and sold the odd car to make a bit extra, as he enjoyed to do anything to do with cars. In 2003 Ben set up as a sole trader as a friend had a premises to rent at Glave hill, Dalston. When moving to Dalston Ben carried on doing vehicle body repairs but also done very basic mechanical repairs. Ben decided to take the next step in 2005 and began to sell cars as well as continuing to do vehicle repairs. He was selling 1-2 cars a week which were mainly customers or trade sellers as the company didn't have the cash flow and weren't strong enough at the time. Over time the company became more established and a lot stronger, and in 2009 an old run down petrol station came up for sale just 1 mile away from his current location, which had a lot bigger workshop area, but mainly a much bigger forecourt as car sales had really taken off.
