Filming underway on REPXPERT ‘Wrenches and Wisdom’ series

Date: Wednesday 28 August 2024

Filming is now underway for Schaeffler’s highly anticipated REPXPERT ‘Wrenches and Wisdom’ video series, due to be released this autumn. The engaging new series promises to put the spotlight on apprenticeships by showcasing real-life stories and experiences from garage owners and technicians across the country.

The series kicks-off with a visit to Colin Denton, Star of TV’s 'Classic Car Garage' and Chief Executive of the North London Garages Group Training Association (NLGGTA). Other familiar industry figures set to be featured include Louise Baker, founder of Womanic in Birmingham and Simon Powney of Markhams Garage in Herefordshire, the winner of the first REPXPERT Bonus Point Millionaire draw.

“We’re incredibly excited to start filming this exciting new series,” said Matthew Selby, Sales and Marketing Director at Schaeffler Automotive Aftermarket (UK) Ltd. “We’re aiming to showcase the incredible talent within our industry and to foster a deeper understanding of the importance of apprenticeships. By capturing these stories, we hope to inspire and engage both current professionals and future technicians, as without them, there won’t be a future for the aftermarket.”

With the cameras now rolling, viewers can expect unique insight into the rewards of a career in the automotive industry. The first three episodes will be streamed across all UK Schaeffler REPXPERT social media feeds later this year.

Garage owners, technicians, and apprentices interested in being featured are invited to express their interest by emailing info@repxpert.co.uk.
