I started out in 1965 as an apprentice at a workshop in Cologna Veneta. Following that, I took over the duty of workshop boss for Talbot-Peugeot. It is now four years that we are in the current mechanical workshop additionally specialising  in pneumatics and electronics. We also offer break-down services.  

The company actually existed for more than fifty years; my grandpa welded bells back then(those for bell towers, I mean). Then the first motorcycles and cars arrived in the workshop and my dad entered the picture. In 1985, after finishing school, came my turn. Since 2003 we have been an "A Posto Rhiag" workshop.

Not long ago, we performed promotions that brought about insufficient results; consequently, we decided not to repeat those experiences.
We don't do a lot of warrantees. We work, above all, from "word of mouth"; we let the satisfied, regular customers find new customers for us and this is enough.  
We work on vehicles such as school buses, traffic police cars, Italian Post office cars (also motorcyles and scooters), and various companies with offices in the territory. 

I have always been against promotions for our own sakes that only serves the bodyshop in "stealing" work from other bodyshops.  We do a lot of warrantee work, particularly on cars from the Fiat, Volkswagen, and Audi groups.
Half of our clientele is composed of residential motorists from and around our beautiful valley. As for the other 50%, we work with leasing companies, long-term rentals, and with businesses such as the Italian Postal service, Enel, and the province of Verona.

We don't have a set strategy for contacting clients. Fortunately, we aren't short of work and a good amount of automobiles arrive to us thanks to the connection with local dealers that advise their clients to our workshop for servicing.

Nicolò is 19 years old and works with me, taking care of autodiagnostics and tuning since he is very passionate in that area. Manuela is the mum of two wonderful little kids that usually keep me company in the afternoons.
