V.J. Collett Ltd
VJ Collett - Family business thriving 90 years on prove
excellent customer service.
A longstanding customer of VJ Collett Ltd appeared at the
door recently and announced that since 1972 he had bought
over 30 cars from the garage – a great testament to the family
business and their customer service.
VJ Collett has been based in Bourton on the Water since 1921
and has looked after the local vehicles for generations of
families; one of their first sales was a Rolls Royce to Lord
Sherborne! Set up by his grandfather, James Collett has now
taken the helm and is looking forward to taking the business
to the next level.
With a reputation for solving any mechanical problem, VJ
Collett now employs 10 staff in their premises on Station
Road. Their facilities can accommodate all types of makes and
models for servicing, repairs and MOT, they have been known
to work on cricket rollers and an old Ferguson tractor. They
can supply tyres, batteries, brakes and exhausts for any car.
James Collett, MD of VJ Collett said: “ When Mr Radley
popped in the other day, I was amazed to discover that he had
bought so many cars from us over the years and now both his
wife and daughter do, too. I do enjoy the fact that we have
built up a good working relationship with so many of our
customers over the years – it is one of the benefits of being in
a small community.”
