meet the team

First of all a huge welcome to Miss Automotive, this has been a long time in the making and I'm so excited to share this personal journey with you all.

I am a fully qualified mechanic, however, I have dabbled in other sectors; estate agency being one, hospitality being another but in truth I knew cars always had my heart... Fast forward 6 years working for BMW in sales management and we come to the present day, heading further back to my roots and getting back under the hood! I want to create a safe, transparent (not to mention fun) place for you to purchase a car and have your vehicle serviced/modified/repaired. I am hoping to venture into the world of racewear aimed at females with design at the forefront.

Watch this space!

Where do I begin? It's always been a life long dream of mine to have my own business and to be writing this still does seem quite surreal. I started as just a kid with an obsession for anything with wheels, I blame my dad for this, I didn't have a chance (think electric blue  600bhp Subaru STI with full engine rebuild, LED lights, custom exhaust)...

 I obtained my Level 3 Mechanic degree in 2014 and assumed work at an independent garage in East Grinstead. I then progressed to Audi  Crawley where I spent a few years before then joining BMW Croydon.

I have passed a host of technical courses with both retailers landing me with a title of an Audi/BMW Specialist.

I tend to think out of the box with most things and when there is a will there is a way and I am extremely meticulous in the way I work and take great pride and honor in having the opportunity to work on someones vehicle.

Tommy has been with Sophie since 2018 and has listened to the endless procrastination about starting the business which has earned him the title of Sanity Keeping!

Tommy loves nothing more than a snooze and you can usually find him in the office doing just that - working hard, or hardly working right?

When he is not sleeping you can find him comforting Soph during the end of month accounts or playing on the beach of a weekend.

Aptly named after Valentino Rossi, there is absolutely never a dull day when Rossi is around, it's like having a full time stand-up comedian come rain or shine.

Rossi joined our family in November 2022 having been rescued from a particularly nasty previous home - how anyone could be mean to him we'll never know, but his little personality is really starting to shine through. He's taken quite a liking to Sophie and if you can see her you can just about guarantee Rossi will be under her feet! 

We couldn't list all the things Rossi loves to do, because he loves to do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING, we've learnt a lot from him; how to be patient and how to just be present and enjoy life.

One thing we all know for sure is we just couldn't do it without him!
