Tudor Rose Full Car Body Inspection

On passing your vehicle over to the custody of Tudor Rose in every case we carry out an inspection of your vehicle noting all damage (if any) on the inspection document. Our driver will walk around your vehicle with you noting any obvious or visible damage should weather conditions permit and he will then ask you to enter your mileage and sign it off. A copy of this inspection document is given to you.

Due to the number of classic and vintage cars that we have looked after for our Clients we have created a FULL CAR BODY INSPECTION. It only differs from the above normal inspection in that ALL marks are recorded including small stone chips, scuffs and scratches including those to alloy wheels (if any). This takes about 5 - 10 minutes so should you choose this option in the booking procedure please allow extra time on arrival at the car park. The Inspection document is checked and signed by the owner, signed by the inspector and then signed off by a second operative. A copy is given to the owner. The price of the full inspection is £10.

This product is specifically designed for cars that are in pristine condition and for the discerning owner. This product is generally purchased together with undercover or garaged parking. If you choose our 'Gold Service' in the booking procedure you receive;

  • Undercover Parking
  • Full Inspection
  • Cancellation Protection 

We reserve the right to decline to carry out a full inspection where the vehicle is so marked it would be unreasonable to do so.

 

What is the Safer Parking Award? 

The Safer Parking Award (Parkmark®) is awarded to car parks that have passed a risk assessment in association with ACPO (the Association of Chief Police Officers) and administered by the British Parking Association. Tudor Rose has been awarded the Parkmark® four years running.




 

To further protect the public from rogue traders and bad practice within the industry, Tudor Rose has joined forces with other bona fide parking operators in an effort to eradicate rogue operators within the industry. Tudor Rose has been instrumental in helping to create the AVPCA (Airport Valet Parking Contractors Association). This association works with greater focus and an improved specialist local knowledge to raise the standards and profile of parking at Gatwick Airport.

Testimonials
"I am so glad I used your company. I have never used Valet Parking before at Gatwick. I returned from holiday with my young daughter, landing at Gatwick at 1.30am having been delayed for 3 hours. I received a text message from Tudor Rose to say that my car was ready to be despatched and just to call in once I had retrieved my luggage. I did that and as I made my way outside my car was waiting. I am so pleased that I did not have to wait, even Gatwick Airport is a lonely place at that time in the morning! I will never use those dreadful buses again!

"I have to say that I booked with Tudor Rose with some trepidation as I was used to Meet and Greet having used it several times with other companies. I decided on the change because on the last two occasions I had great difficulty in meeting up with the Meet and Greet driver. Last August I waited for about 20 minutes and apparently the driver was held up at the other end of the airport through volume of traffic. At Xmas time it was the reverse. There was traffic all the way back to the ST roundabout and I could not get in.
This time round my luck with the traffic did not get any better. However, this time I picked up my driver at your Gatwick Car Park and he drove me into the Terminal. He avoided all the traffic and dropped me and my wife off within minutes at the Terminal. Just a couple of minutes walk into the Terminal and that was that! Well done Tudor Rose, great service!
