Estimates suggest startup costs are typically around £3,000 to £12,000, depending on your van, tools, diagnostic equipment, parts stock and insurance. Buying a used van and building up parts gradually can help keep costs down.

Monthly revenue is typically around £1,500 to £6,000, depending on how many clubs and owners you serve and whether you also sell parts or buggies. The work is seasonal and weather-driven, so plan for quieter winter months.

Check insurance such as public liability and tools or van cover. Working on high-capacity batteries carries electrical and fire risks, so check training. Also check rules on disposing of old batteries, including waste carrier registration.
