Harbourline Motors
A no-nonsense site for an independent garage, built around one job: getting people to book a service or NCT prep without picking up the phone.

The brief
Independent garages live and die by trust and convenience. Most customers arrive on a phone, often from a Google search, and want three things answered fast: do you do what I need, roughly what will it cost, and can I book?
This concept answers those questions above the fold. The design uses a dark, workshop-inspired palette with a single high-visibility amber accent reserved for actions, so the booking button is never lost.
Design decisions
- Prices up front. A simple “from” price list builds trust and filters out calls that are only about price.
- Thumb-friendly. On mobile, call and booking actions sit in a fixed bar within easy reach.
- Local signals. Town name, opening hours and directions appear on every page to support local search.
What this would cost
This concept fits the Professional package: five pages, an enquiry form, maps and local SEO set-up.
Goals
- Make booking a service the obvious next step on every page
- Show clear starting prices to cut down repetitive phone calls
- Rank locally for searches like “car service Westport”
Key features
- Sticky click-to-call and “Book a service” buttons on mobile
- Service menu with starting prices, editable from one file
- Opening hours and Google Maps directions
- Enquiry form that captures registration and preferred date
