About RPM Autocare

A family-run garage and bodyshop in Newton Abbot, run by Russell and Mark.

RPM Autocare is a father-and-son business on Milber Trading Estate in Newton Abbot. Between us we cover the mechanical side and the bodyshop side, so most jobs a car needs can be done in one place, by people who'll talk you through it.
