Five questions with: Timothy Guidotti

Friday 30 Jan 2026

 

  1. “What’s the one thing most people in the aftermarket are getting wrong right now?”

A: Not realising how fast technology is moving and how good it is!  We already have trials of Robo-taxis starting this year in London!

 

  1. “What’s the ambition for the business in 2026?”

A: To establish the first ever industry standard for Fleet Repairers in the UK; Fleet Guy Certified.

 

  1. “What trends are you watching closely?

A: New vehicle sales into Fleet: the move from vehicle ownership to usership including new ownership models such as car subscription and autonomous vehicles.  Also the % sales of ZEV vehicles.

 

  1. “If you were running a garage / supplier / distributor today, what would you prioritise?”

A: Getting into or growing Fleet work and relationships with Fleet companies.

 

  1. “One word to describe the aftermarket right now — and why?”

A: Exciting!  OEM repair options are reducing and service levels are poor; the independent aftermarket is the solution!
