My mate runs a garage and when he bought it, he kept the old name (Alveys Garage). He now wants to change it and needs a catchy / memerable name. Any ideas?

So does he specialise in any particular type of work? Is it an MOT station, etc?

A bit more info required...

Sorry! Yes, MOT station and general car repairs. Don't specialise in anything in particular. He doesn't want to use his own first name or surname. The garage he used to work for was called 'Running Repairs', so that name is out of the question!

[Arnie mode on]

Oil be black

[Arnie mode off]

Not to be confused with "Oil be back" which may harm his reputation.

I reckon it would be far easier to decide a name if he decided to specialise in particular types.. scoobys for example?
