Thank you to everyone who came to see us at AM Live at the NEC, Birmingham, on 11 November. It was a brilliant day, and a great chance to show what the workshop of the future really looks like.
The centrepiece of our stand was a full-size drive-through inspection tunnel. Tyres, alignment, bodywork and the underside are all checked in the time it takes to drive through, with no one touching the car. Lasers measure toe and camber directly as the car rolls past, every tyre is scanned edge to edge and shown to the customer in 3D, the bodywork is filmed from up to 10 angles, and the UnderIQ X1 photographs the whole underside.
As soon as a car clears the tunnel, its results appear on the showroom flight board and on the advisor's screen in InspecPro, ready to walk the customer through. At one BMW retailer site, that led to 552 extra wheel alignments sold in just three months.
We also showcased the MOT Pod, a complete Class 4 test bay in its own unit that sits on your car park, adding MOT capacity without giving up a ramp inside. Next door, the CarMover showed how one person can safely move immobilised cars of up to 4 tonnes, with no pushing required.
A big thank you to everyone who stopped by, and to the Everard team who made the stand happen. If we spoke at the show, we'll be in touch soon. If you missed us and would like a demo, just get in touch.
