Thank You for 30 Wonderful Years
After more than three decades of serving the local community, Chequers Autos Ltd has now closed permanently.
Since first opening our doors on Wandsworth Road, we’ve been proud to provide honest, reliable MOT testing and vehicle servicing to customers across Battersea, Nine Elms, Wandsworth and beyond.
Chequers Autos has always been a small, family-run business — just the two of us, Paul and Sandra — and it’s been our privilege to get to know so many of you over the years. From long-standing customers who trusted us with every MOT, to neighbours who stopped by for a chat, your loyalty and support have meant the world to us.
We want to express our deepest thanks to everyone who has been part of our journey. It’s been an honour to serve this community, and we’re truly grateful for the kindness and friendship shown to us throughout the past 30 years.
Though Chequers Autos has now closed, we’ll always look back with pride and appreciation for the people who made it all worthwhile.
If you’d like to send any well-wishes, you can reach us at chequersautos@gmail.com— we’d love to hear from you.
With heartfelt thanks,
Paul & Sandra
Chequers Autos Ltd
